             Summary: Add user defined SSTables option for nodetool 
garbagecollect
                 Key: CASSANDRA-16767
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-16767
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Scott Carey
            Assignee: Scott Carey


nodetool garbagecollect does not yet have an option to supply a user defined 
list of SSTables to process.  

This is unfortunate, because there are many cases where an operator would know 
which subset of tables are in need of a garbagecollect.  Perhaps with STCS, one 
would choose to garbagecollect only the largest file.

With a large LCS table, it is typical that the highest levels have the most 
overwritten data, and it may take a very long time  to run a full 
garbagecollect or full compaction, but a relatively short time to process a 
smaller subset of SSTables.
