Allow to resume partition processor not only from the latest snapshot

Open tillrohrmann opened this issue 2 months ago • 1 comments

In case a snapshot gets corrupted and users still have a snapshot available which is resumable (log has been trimmed beyond the applied index), it would be great to have a way to configure the system to resume from it. At the moment, we only try to resume from the latest snapshot. A simple way could be an utility which allows one to drop newer snapshots and rewrite the latest.json file.

Makes sense! This would be nice in conjunction with the ability to retain the "last N" snapshots together with a feature to report only the Nth most recent snapshot's LSN as the archived LSN (to delay automatic log trimming).
