If you supply --force-idsegments with a segment ID that is not meant for auto-archiving the segment will not be archived. Even though to me the force part of the parameter suggests, that the individual setting of the segment would be ignored.
I know you probably don't want to change the naming of command line parameters, since that would be a breaking change.

Therefor i would suggest to at least:

  • Explain that behaviour in console help core:archive

or

  • Log segments in the command line that are given to --force-idsegments but skipped because of their individual settings

The archiving process will only archive segments that have been created with the auto-archiving flag. If you want to see what exactly the archiver is archiving you can provide the debug flag --verbose.
We will consider improving the documentation so it's more clear what will be archived and not.
