Hey Aaron,

Yes, in regards to SCF definition, you are correct:


name: Sensor

      column_type: Super

      compare_with: TimeUUIDType

      gc_grace_seconds: 864000

      keys_cached: 10000.0

      read_repair_chance: 1.0

      rows_cached: 0.0

I'm not quite sure I follow you, though, as I think I'm doing what you
specify.  The Pelops code is below.  Basically, I want to get rows starting
from a Super Column with a specific UUID and limit the number, just as you
inferred.  When I run this code I just get the last N values (25 in this
case) if non-reversed, and the first N values if reversed.  However,
regardless of what start param we use (Super Column UUID is String startKey
below), we still get the same values for the specified amount (e.g. the same
25).

*public* *void* getSuperRowKeys(String rowKey, String columnFamily,
*int* limit,
String startKey) *throws* Exception {

 *byte*[] byteArray = UuidHelper.*timeUuidStringToBytes*(startKey);

ByteBuffer bb = ByteBuffer.*wrap*(byteArray);

*new* UUID (bb.getLong(), bb.getLong());

 List<SuperColumn> cols = selector.getPageOfSuperColumnsFromRow(columnFamily,
rowKey, Bytes.*fromByteBuffer*(bb), *false*, limit, ConsistencyLevel.*ONE*);


 *for* (SuperColumn col : cols) {

*if* (col.getName() != *null*) {


System.*out*.println("NAME: " + UUID.*nameUUIDFromBytes*(col.getName()));


*for* (Column c : col.columns) {

System.*out*.println("\t\tName: " + Bytes.*toUTF8*(c.getName())

+ " Value: " + Bytes.*toUTF8*(c.getValue())

+ " timestamp: " + c.timestamp);


}


}

}


}

Here is some example data from the CLI.  If we specify
2f814d30-f758-11df-2f81-4d30f75811df
as the start param (second super column down), we still get
52e6540-f759-11df-952e-6540f75911df
(first super column) returned.
