Dbms.active_database deprecated, what should I use instead?

[azocankara]

Hi,

Using Neo4J 3.5.11, running in docker (neo4j:3.5.11-enterprise),

I noticed a warning log "WARN dbms.active_database is deprecated."

Why is it deprecated ? And what should I use to replace this parameter ?

other than the WARNing is it causing any harm?
the reason for it being reported as 'deprecated' is that though still valid in 3.5.x, when Neo4j release 4.x which will support multiple databases under a single Neo4j java engine, the parameter will no longer be valid.

If its just a WARNing and there are no other impacts I would simply disregard
