Abstract

The Red Hat JBoss Fuse container caches information about its state and the artifacts deployed to it. It uses this data to make startup faster. You can configure how this information is stored on your file system.

Overview

Red Hat JBoss Fuse containers store all of their persistent caches relative to its start location. It will create a data folder in the directory from which you launch the container. This folder is populated by folders storing information about the message broker used by the container, the OSGi framework, and the JBI container.

The data folder

The data folder is used by the JBoss Fuse runtime to store persistent state information. It contains the following folders:
activemq
Contains persistent data needed by any Apache ActiveMQ brokers that are started by the container.
cache
The OSGi bundle cache. The cache contains a directory for each bundle, where the directory name corresponds to the bundle identifier number.
generated-bundles
Contains bundles that are generated by the container. Typically these are to support deployed JBI artifacts.
jbi
Contains a subdirectory for each JBI artifact deployed to the JBoss Fuse runtime. For JBI components the folder's name is generated by the component's name. For JBI service assemblies, the folder's name is the identifier of the bundle generated to support the service assembly.
log
Contains the log files.
maven
A temporary directory used by the Fabric Maven Proxy when uploading files.
txlog
Contains the log files used by the transaction management system. You can set the location of this directory in the org.apache.aries.transaction.cfg file

Changing the bundle cache location

By default, the bundle cache is stored in InstallDir/data/cache.
To specify an alternative location, modify the org.osgi.framework.storage property in config.properties.
If you use a relative path, the cache location is added to the root of the JBoss Fuse installation directory.

Flushing the bundle cache

You can configure JBoss Fuse to flush the bundle cache every time the runtime starts by setting the org.osgi.framework.storage.clean property to onFirstInit in config.properties. This property is set to none by default.

Changing the generated-bundle cache location

The generated-bundle cache is where the container caches bundles it creates to support JARs that are not supplied as OSGi bundles.
You can configure the location of this cache by changing the felix.fileinstall.tmpdir property in the org.apache.felix.fileinstall-deploy.cfg file.

Adjusting the bundle cache buffer

The felix.cache.bufsize property controls the size of the buffer used to copy bundles into the bundle cache. Its default value is 4096 bytes.
You can adjust this property by editing its value in the config.properties configuration file. The value is specified in bytes.
