Will Hayworth commented on CASSANDRA-11172: ------------------------------------------- debug.log? I can go hunt through my compressed files but this quickly pushes the other logs out of rotation. I've watched it happen. Thousands upon thousands of lines. And it's happened for a bunch of different nodes. The solution has been to kill them and restart but it's temporary. I just checked--all 20 zipped system.logs are filled with 40,000+ lines like the ones in my sample file. I was going to upload some to you but they're just identical, including the earliest lines I have: {noformat} INFO [CompactionExecutor:35] 2016-02-17 01:59:03,111 LeveledManifest.java:438 - Adding high-level (L0) BigTableReader(path='/var/lib/cassandra/data/segmentation/domain_events_by_event_domain_time-e81d74f0cd3a11e5aad8e7b84e29e52f/ma-3663-big-Data.db') to candidates INFO [CompactionExecutor:37] 2016-02-17 01:59:03,112 LeveledManifest.java:438 - Adding high-level (L3) BigTableReader(path='/var/lib/cassandra/data/segmentation/times_by_event_domain_user-e6112a30cd3a11e5ba896547d15a24f6/ma-4586-big-Data.db') to candidates INFO [CompactionExecutor:35] 2016-02-17 01:59:03,276 LeveledManifest.java:438 - Adding high-level (L0) BigTableReader(path='/var/lib/cassandra/data/segmentation/domain_events_by_event_domain_time-e81d74f0cd3a11e5aad8e7b84e29e52f/ma-3663-big-Data.db') to candidates INFO [CompactionExecutor:37] 2016-02-17 01:59:03,276 LeveledManifest.java:438 - Adding high-level (L3) BigTableReader(path='/var/lib/cassandra/data/segmentation/times_by_event_domain_user-e6112a30cd3a11e5ba896547d15a24f6/ma-4586-big-Data.db') to candidates {noformat} > Infinite loop bug adding high-level SSTableReader in compaction > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-11172 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-11172 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Compaction > Environment: DSE 4.x / Cassandra 2.1.11.969 > Reporter: Jeff Ferland > Assignee: Marcus Eriksson > Attachments: beep.txt > > > Observed that after a large repair on LCS that sometimes the system will > enter an infinite loop with vast amounts of logs lines recording, "Adding > high-level (L${LEVEL}) SSTableReader(path='${TABLE}') to candidates" > This results in an outage of the node and eventual crashing.
