How to clear only a specific OSGi module directory from osgi/state/

Issue

• Is it possible to clear only the data from a specific module in osgi/state/ instead of clearing the whole directory?

Environment

• Liferay DXP 7.0+

Resolution

• Imagine we want to clear the data of module com.example.
• Use the Gogo Shell to find the OSGi bundle id:

  g! lb -s com.example
  START LEVEL 20
    ID|State  |Level|Symbolic name
  1197|Active |   15|com.example (3.0.59)|3.0.59

• Use the bundle id, 1197 in the above example, to find the bundle directory. By default: $LIFERAY_HOME/osgi/state/org.eclipse.osgi/1197.
  • Otherwise, you can use the b <bundle-id> command to find the path:

    g! b 1197 | grep state
    Id=1197, Status=ACTIVE Data Root=/opt/liferay/osgi/state/org.eclipse.osgi/1197/data

• Finally, remember to stop you application server before clearing the directory.
