Thank you all I need something like this:
insert into table test2 select * from test1 where partition_key='SOME_KEYS'; The problem with copying sstable is that original table contains some billions of records and i only want some hundred millions of records from the table, so after copy/pasting big sstables in so many nodes i should wait for a deletion that would take so long to response: delete from test2 where partition_key != 'SOME_KEYS' Sent using Zoho Mail ---- On Mon, 09 Apr 2018 06:14:02 +0430 Dmitry Saprykin <saprykin.dmi...@gmail.com> wrote ---- IMHO The best step by step description of what you need to do is here https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-1585?focusedCommentId=13488959&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels%3Acomment-tabpanel#comment-13488959 The only difference is that you need to copy data from one table only. I did it for a whole keyspace.

Be sure you have an snapshot of the table source and ignore step 4 of course Saludos Jean Carlo "The best way to predict the future is to invent it" Alan Kay On Sun, Apr 8, 2018 at 6:33 PM, Dmitry Saprykin <saprykin.dmi...@gmail.com> wrote: You can copy hardlinks to ALL SSTables from old to new table and then delete part of data you do not need in a new one.

A large amount of data should be copied so i don't want to fetch data to client and stream it back to cassandra using cql. Sent using Zoho Mail
