I'm using a database with plocal storage, and the .wal files created in the database directory are starting to pile up (12 GB). There's about 350 of them right now.

Is this expected? It seems like they should be cleaned up.

What can I do to minimize this?

up.
Seems an annoying issue for us before we plan to migrate from local to plocal.

What are the plans on this point ?

Oh guys sorry,

It is partially fixed in 1.6.2 and will be fixed in 2.0, when write ahead log will be automatically truncated.

Now that 2.0 is being pushed out, is there anyway this could be put into a sooner release. We have some customers who've built up 30GB of wal files. Telling them they have to reboot their system is not a very attractive solution for them.

Thanks.

I believe they are using 1.6.

Hi,

It is not problem in 1.6.4 I suggest you to wait for 1.6.5 and then do update.

Hi,

We used size limit of wal to truncate wal files but latest version truncate wal files till the last write operation which was flushed to the disk.

But you need latestest version of product.

You can download it from there http://helios.orientechnologies.com/job/orient-maven/lastStableBuild/com.orientechnologies$orientdb-community/artifact/com.orientechnologies/orientdb-community/2.0-SNAPSHOT/orientdb-community-2.0-SNAPSHOT-distribution.zip
