When we are trying to consolidate array or group metadata but there are no array or group metadata present, we are creating an empty
.vac
file on local filesystems. In object stores, notably on S3 that I have tested, ourwrite
method currently doesn't create a file when size is0
(this is most probably another issue to fix), so we don't observe the same behavior.This PR unifies the behavior by enforcing that we don't create a
.vac
file if no consolidation is possible, aka if there are 0 or 1 array/group metadata present. We already do such a check for fragment metadata, fragments and commit consolidation.Both tests in this PR were failing without the fix and are now passing.
