Today we did not set the global checkpoint when opening an engine from an existing store. If we are forced to close an engine before advancing the global checkpoint, we also have to close translog which in turn sync a new checkpoint with an unassigned global checkpoint. This is not caught until the global checkpoint assertion was introduced in PR elastic#27837. This commit tightens the syncNeeded conditions. Relates elastic#27970

I don't think we should do this. Currently the translog is "just" a dump storage system for the checkpoint and I think we should keep it this way. The assertion that this tries to bypass is flag that something else is wrong, which is what #27972 tries to fix. Having the logic around global checkpoint advancement/ persistence in multiple places will make our life complicated. |

@bleskes, I agree, that's why I labelled this 6.0.3 and 6.1.2 which don't have the right patch. What do you think about these versions? |

Discussed with @ywelsch, this is not really an issue in previous versions. |
