[infinispan-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (ISPN-12349) Eviction <memory> attribute when-full does not work as expected

Eviction <memory> attribute when-full does not work as expected --------------------------------------------------------------- Key: ISPN-12349 URL: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/ISPN-12349 Project: Infinispan Issue Type: Bug Components: Core Affects Versions: 12.0.0.Dev03 Reporter: Wolf-Dieter Fink Priority: Major Eviction can be configured with the <memory> element and use when-full of NONE|MANUAL|REMOVE|EXCEPTION From XSD: NONE - Do not evict entries. ... MANUAL Manually evict entries. This strategy is the same as NONE but does not log errors if you enable passivation without eviction. REMOVE - Automatically evict older entries to make space for new entries. By default REMOVE is always used when you define a size for the data container unless you configure the EXCEPTION strategy. EXCEPTION Do not evict entries. If the data container reaches the maximum size, exceptions occur for requests to create new entries. With a store (here RocksDB) no matter whether passivation is enabled or not EXCEPTION will NOT throw an Exception but does not evict any entry, the entries can be added with the drawback that the statistic is wrong num-in-mem=X current-num-entries=X total-entires=0 -> without a store the Exception is thrown as expected With REMOVE the eviction will work as expected NONE|MANUAL will default always to REMOVE and not show the behavior in its description no matter whether a store and passivation is used. NONE and MANUAL seems useless and lead confusion.
