> Add sstabledump option to display only tombstones
> -------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CASSANDRA-19939
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-19939
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Tool/sstable
> Reporter: Brad Schoening
> Assignee: Stefan Miklosovic
> Priority: Normal
> Time Spent: 10m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> The utility sstabledump would be more useful if it had an option to display
> just tombsones, much like the -e option to display only partition keys.
> When tombstones exist, it should display the partition key, clustering
> columns and the range, row or cell tombstone.
> When investigating tombstone issues, a common way is to run sstabledump.
> However, the output can be very large, on the order of gigabytes and scanning
> the JSON output for tombstone entries is a hunt-and-peck experience or
> requires using a tool like 'jq'. Being able to just view the tombstones
> would eliminate the issue of the output being too large and not require
> extraneous tools.
