Summary: Data lost during compaction Key: CASSANDRA-11102 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-11102 Project: Cassandra Issue Type: Bug Components: Compaction Environment: Cassandra 3.2.1 (single node, 5 node cluster) JDK 8 Reporter: Jaroslav Kamenik Priority: Blocker We have experienced data loses in some tables during few weeks since update to cassandra 3.0. I thing I successfully found test case now. Step one - test table: CREATE TABLE aaa ( r int, c1 int, c2 ascii, PRIMARY KEY (r, c1, c2)); Step two - run few queries: insert into aaa (r, c1, c2) values (1,2,'A'); delete from aaa where r=1 and c1=2 and c2='B'; insert into aaa (r, c1, c2) values (2,3,'A'); delete from aaa where r=2 and c1=3 and c2='B'; insert into aaa (r, c1, c2) values (3,4,'A'); delete from aaa where r=3 and c1=4 and c2='B'; insert into aaa (r, c1, c2) values (4,5,'A'); delete from aaa where r=4 and c1=5 and c2='B'; It creates 4 rows (select count says 4) and 4 tombstones. Step 3 - Restart Cassandra You will see new files written into C* data folder. I tried sstable-tools to print table structure, it shows 4 rows, data and tombstones are there. Step 4 - set GC grace to 1 to force tombstone removing during compaction. alter table aaa with GC_GRACE_SECONDS = 1; Step 5 - Compact tables ./nodetool compact aaa files dissapeares during compaction. select count(*) says 0 compaction history says ... aaa 2016-02-01T14:24:01.433 329 0 {} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
