Greengrass V2 - Does the Nucleus 'componentStoreMaxSizeBytes' config option include the '/greengrass/v2/work/' folder?

Question

Hi,

Does the 'componentStoreMaxSizeBytes' config option also limit the size of the '/greengrass/v2/work/' folder, or is its scope limited only to the '/greengrass/v2/packages' folder?

In the event that the configured threshold is reached, what behaviour does the Nucleus perform? Does it simply start deleting older files to make space?

Accepted Answer

My reading of the source code is it only includes the packages folder in the assessment.

If the limit is reached, it just throws an exception. So your deployment will fail.
