Sylvain Lebresne commented on CASSANDRA-5137: --------------------------------------------- I think you're right. A fourth pseudo-solution could be to wait the end of the compaction to rename all the newly created writers (i.e remove the tmp markers). It's not bulletproof though as I don't think we can rename multiple files atomically but just wanted to mention it. Maybe at least for 1.1, 3. is the best/simplest option. On the longer term, maybe 1. is better. > Make sure SSTables left over from compaction get deleted and logged > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-5137 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-5137 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 1.1.3 > Reporter: Yuki Morishita > Assignee: Yuki Morishita > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 1.1.9, 1.2.1 > > Attachments: 5137-1.1.txt > > > When opening ColumnFamily, cassandra checks SSTable files' ancestors and > skips loading already compacted ones.
