Soumya Sanyal commented on CASSANDRA-13176: ------------------------------------------- No, I did not. Is that mandatory? I'm only asking because there might be a case for updating the document here: https://docs.datastax.com/en/cql/3.3/cql/cql_reference/cqlDropIndex.html I was following that. > DROP INDEX seemingly doesn't stop existing Index build > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: CASSANDRA-13176 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-13176 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Compaction, CQL > Environment: CentOS Linux, JRE 1.8 > Reporter: Soumya Sanyal > > There appears to be an edge case with secondary indexes (non SASI). I > originally issued a CREATE INDEX on a column, and upon listening to advice > from folks in the #cassandra room, decided against it, and issued a DROP > INDEX. > I didn't check the cluster overnight, but this morning, I found out that our > cluster CPU usage was pegged around 80%. Looking at compaction stats, I saw > that the index build was still ongoing. We had to restart the entire cluster > for the changes to take effect. > Version: 3.9 -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
