The Datastax doc says to run cleanup one node at a time after bootstrapping
has completed. The myadventuresincoding post says to run a repair on each
node first. Is it necessary to run the repairs first? Thanks.

You will DEFINITELY not remove sstables obsoleted by compaction if they are
being streamed out to neighbors. It would also not surprise me that if you

happens when we join/remove nodes, and we have a lot of servers with this
issue (while before the join/remove we are on ~50% disk usage).
We found ourselves fighting with compaction to make sure we don't run out

If you restart the node, it'll process/purge those compaction logs on
startup, but you want them to purge/process now.
I genuinely dont know when the tidier runs, but it's likely the case that
you're too busy compaction to purge (though I don't know what exactly "too
busy" means).
Since you're cl

I can see many txn files although I only have two compactions running.

Thanks. I also found this useful:

The node seems to be joining fine and is streaming in lots of data. Cluster
is still operating normally.

Hey
I have a 4.0.7 cluster in which I see weird behavior.
I expect that once compaction finishes, the old sstables that were part of
the compaction set will be deleted, but it appears they are deleted much
later, thus causing space issues.
For example this is what I have in the log, only one compa
