Iterating over all keys in column family with LongType key

Hi, I have two column families, one keyed by UTF8Type (let's call it StringFamily), the other by LongType (LongFamily). Both are stored in a keyspace using the RandomPartitioner. I need to iterate over all columns in both families, although order does not matter. Iterating over StringFamily is

Inability to drop column families

Looking for ideas on how to diagnose this issue. I have installed v1.1.2 on a two-node cluster (the data files loaded, incidentally, were from an earlier v1.1.1 2-node setup). While initially I recall being able to create/drop column families, I am no longer able to. Let's say I have column fa

Re: sstableloader 1.1 won't stream

Pieter, Aaron, Any further progress on this? I'm running into the same issue, although in my case I'm trying to stream from Ubuntu 10.10 to a 2-node cluster (also Cassandra 1.1.0, and running on separate Ubuntu 10.10 hosts). Thanks in advance! -- View this message in context: http://cassandra-

Re: Long start-up times

Thanks, Edward. What do you suppose a reasonable value for index_interval might be? If I'm anyways setting keys_cached to 1.0, what would the implications be of setting index_interval very high (perhaps 1000, 1 or even higher--my data set involves a large number of smallish rows)? I imagine

Long start-up times

Hi, I have 2 column families with approx 50 GB of compressed data (~150GB uncompressed). The data resides in a keyspace replicated 2-way, hosted by a 2-node Cassandra cluster (v1.0.8), both with 74GB RAM and 16 cores.Key caches are set to 1.0. I'm noticing that it can take upwards of 15+ mi
