The issue for Bonsai archive is here. There's also a draft PR which was a start at delivering the feature, and a re-based branch of that PR https://github.com/jframe/besu/tree/multi-version-flat-db-rebase
Configuration
When Bonsai DB is enabled the node switches between FULL and PARTIAL modes automatically, depending on what state the DB is currently in - there is no config/CLI arg to switch between them. For ARCHIVE mode it would make sense to have a config/CLI option such as --bonsai-archive-enabled=true (which defaults to false )
Rocks DB column families
Currently the column families are identified by an individual byte. You need to know that e.g. 0x0a maps to "TRIE_LOG_STORAGE". The Bonsai archive work might be a good time to update the column families from bytes to string names to make querying the DB directly easier. This would likely mean moving the DATABASE_METADATA version from 2 to 3 and would require decisions about whether to upgrade existing DBs or just use the new names for new DBs.
