-The definition of in-use is many fold. In the simplest case, a data file is in-use if it contains a pending message for a destination or durable topic subscription. If it does not contain any message, it may contain acks for messages that are in data files that are in-use, in which case it cannot be removed (b/c a recovery with missing acks would result in redelivery). <br clear="none">
-If the journal references a pending transaction it cannot be removed till that transaction completes. Finally, if a data file is the current journal file, it is considered in-use as there may be a pending write to that journal file.</p>

-<p>The trace level logging of the org.apache.activemq.store.kahadb.MessageDatabase class provides insight into the cleanup process and will allow you to determine why a given data file is considered in-use and as a result, not a candidate for cleanup.</p>
