Hi Robert, I downloaded apache-cassandra-1.2.9.tar.gz from http://cassandra.apache.org/download/ ( http://apache.mirrors.tds.net/cassandra/1.2.9/apache-cassandra-1.2.9-bin.tar.gz) and installed it on the individual nodes of the cassandra cluster. Thanks, Suruchi On Thu, Sep 19, 2013 at 12:35 PM,

Hi Richard, This is a brand new cluster which started with num_tokens =256 on first boot and chose random tokens. The attached ring status is after data is loaded into the cluster for the first time using sdtableloader and remains that way even after Cassandra is restarted. Thanks, Suruchi On

What is the best way to delete column data from a Cassandra cluster after it is backed up with snapshots (using Priam or otherwise) to a stable storage? We dont want to use the TTL option, since we would like to restore the backed-up data in the Cassandra cluster at a later time. Setting a TTL wo
