Hi Jerome, I don't know reason for this, but compactions run during 'nodetool decommission'.
What C* version you are working with? What is the reason you're decommissioning the node? Any issues with it? Can you see any errors/warnings in system.log on the node being decommissioned? Pending tasks --- you mean output of 'nodetool tpstats'? Could you please send output of 'nodetool netstats' from the node you're trying to evict from the cluster. Regards, Kyrill ________________________________ From: Jerome Basa <jeromeb...@gmail.com> Sent: Wednesday, January 17, 2018 6:56:10 PM To: user@cassandra.apache.org Subject: question about nodetool decommission hi, am currently decommissioning a node and monitoring it using `nodetool netstats`. i’ve noticed that it hasn’t started streaming any data and it’s doing compaction (like 600+ pending tasks). the node is marked as “UL” when i run `nodetool status`. has anyone seen like this before? am thinking of stopping C* and run `nodetool removenode`. also, can i add a new node to the cluster while one node is marked as “UL” (decommissioning)? thanks regards, -jerome --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@cassandra.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@cassandra.apache.org
