Background

When an Exasol cluster is operated using a RAW data license, the limit is enforced across all databases in that cluster.

Problem

When a database is created, started and subsequently deleted again, its size is incorrectly remembered and counts toward the cluster limit.
As a consequence, DML operations on the remaining databases may unexpectedly fail with license exceeded exceptions.

Workaround

Restarting EXAOperation resets the raw size counter, removing the problem.
