Hi All, I used sstableloader to export data from first cassandra cluster (RF 3) to another cluster with RF 1. Afther all the tables were copied and second cluster was working fine I decided to run node repair on the second cluster as regular operation. *This repair cause the data size on the second cluster to go up almost 3 times . *
Does it mean, the original data was further replicated 3 times and which means which row is now with 9 replicas!! Please help. Doc says sstableloader can be used with different RF factor. Where did I go wrong? http://datastax.com/documentation/cassandra/2.1/cassandra/tools/toolsBulkloader_t.html -Pranay
