Hi, The first step in using reaper is to add a cluster to it, as it is a tool that can manage multiple clusters and does not need to be executed on a Cassandra node (you can run in on any edge node you want).
You should run : ./bin/spreaper add-cluster 127.0.0.1 Where you'll replace 127.0.0.1 by the address of one of the nodes of your cluster. Then you can run : ./bin/spreaper cluster_name keyspace_name to start repairing a keyspace. You might want to drop in the UI made by Stefan Podkowinski which might ease things up for you, at least at the beginning : https://github.com/spodkowinski/cassandra-reaper-ui Worth mentioning that at The Last Pickle we maintain a fork of Reaper that handles incremental repair, works with C* 2.x and 3.0, and bundles the UI : https://github.com/thelastpickle/cassandra-reaper We have a branch that allows using Cassandra as a storage backend instead of Postgres : https://github.com/thelastpickle/cassandra-reaper/tree/add-cassandra-storage It should be merged to master really soon and should be ready to use.
