Hi Jacob ! How are you ? You understood perfectly the problem. I need to fix an integer field by reading it, calculating the difference and writing back the correct value (in other words, increment it with the diff, positive or negative to achieve the correct value).
As I said it works sometimes and fails in other attempts. i.e. If i run now it fails... running again then works. I'm "fixing" few records (~30 records) and it fails only in one or two (but not always the same) and works perfectly to the others. And... if I run again all records got the correct value. And.... if I run again, some fails. In the future this script must work with millions of records but I confess I'm a little insecure right now because it's a very simple operation and it seems like a Cassandra's bug. Could it be ? If you need somre more information let me know. Thank you for the help !
