Tyler Hobbs commented on CASSANDRA-5831:
----------------------------------------
Hmm, there's one complication: {{sstableupgrade}} requires a keyspace and table
to be specified, whereas the data directory migration is normally done all at
once. Changing the directory layout for only a single CF feels strange, but
changing the layout for other keyspaces and CFs that you didn't specify also
feels wrong.
> Running sstableupgrade on C* 1.0 data dir, before starting C* 1.2 for the
> first time breaks stuff

> If you try to upgrade from C* 1.0.X to 1.2.X and run offline sstableupgrade
> to try and migrate the sstables before starting 1.2.X for the first time, it
> messes up the system folder, because it doesn't migrate it right, and then C*
> 1.2 can't start.
> sstableupgrade should either refuse to run against a C* 1.0 data folder, or
> migrate stuff the right way.
