Meaning of log "not removing data file"
Hi,
We are having some issues with kahadb. We see that some journal files, named
"db-", are not removed and this makes ActiveMQ to use a lot of disk space.
We've activated ActiveMQ logs and there are some logs with this information:
2018-04-23 11:32:52,218 [eckpoint Worker] TRACE MessageDatabase
- not removing data file: 348 as contained ack(s) refer to referenced file:
[348, 234]
2018-04-23 11:32:52,218 [eckpoint Worker] TRACE MessageDatabase
- not removing data file: 357 as contained ack(s) refer to referenced file:
[356, 357]
2018-04-23 11:32:52,218 [eckpoint Worker] TRACE MessageDatabase

2018-04-23 11:32:52,218 [eckpoint Worker] TRACE MessageDatabase
- not removing data file: 372 as contained ack(s) refer to referenced file:
[372, 371]
2018-04-23 11:32:52,218 [eckpoint Worker] TRACE MessageDatabase
- not removing data file: 396 as contained ack(s) refer to referenced file:
[396, 395]
I know that a journal file is not removed until all its messaged are ACKed.
However, I don't understand the meaning of this message: *not removing data
file: X as contained ack(s) refer to referenced file: [X, Y]* Apparently the
journal file with X id is not removed because it contains messages with
references to another journal file. I don't understand how this can be
possible.
I've searched information about this message but I haven't found a clear
answer. Could you point me to a resource with information about this?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks Tim.
I didn't know that ack messages are stored in the journal files as well. Now
it makes sense the logs and why the number of journal files are increasing.

It means that either the file contains an unconsumed message, or it
contains acks for one or more messages in a data file that's being kept, or
both.
http://activemq.apache.org/why-do-kahadb-log-files-remain-after-cleanup.html
has additional explanation.
