Shaurya Gupta commented on CASSANDRA-14996:
-------------------------------------------

I have attached a patch which gives the basic idea of what I am suggesting. If 
you find it broadly fine then I can work further on this issue.

> Incremental backups can fill up the disk if they are not being uploaded

> This creates a major problem if the script which uploads the snapshots is 
> triggered via some API and the application triggering it is somehow down and 
> is not able to hit the API. This affects Cassandra and slowly one or more 
> Cassandra nodes go down.
> There could be a check in Cassandra that before creating a snapshot it checks 
> that the disk has some sufficient (configurable via cassandra.yaml and jmx) 
> disk space.
> This could be achieved by making change inĀ 
> public void maybeIncrementallyBackup(final Iterable<SSTableReader> sstables)
