Hi,
I am currently trying to migrate my test cluster to incremental repairs.
These are the steps I'm doing on every node:
- touch marker
- nodetool disableautocompation
- nodetool repair
- cassandra stop
- find all *Data*.db files older then marker
- invoke sstablerepairedset on those
- cassandra start
This is essentially what
http://www.datastax.com/dev/blog/anticompaction-in-cassandra-2-1 says.
After all nodes migrated this way, I think I need to run my regular
repairs more often and they should be faster afterwards. But do I need
to run "nodetool repair" or is "nodetool repair -pr" sufficient?
And do I need to reenable autocompation? Oder do I need to compact myself?
Thanks for any input,
Roland
