Re: Running multiple compactions concurrently

The compaction will be part of a Cassandra upgrade (where all nodes will have to be taken down), so no clients will be hitting it until the upgrade is complete. I just want to minimize the downtime. Thanks, this is basically what I wanted to hear. Daniel On Fri, 2011-02-25 at 13:24 +, Gary D

If your cluster has the overall IO capacity to perform a simultaneous compaction on every node and still adequately service reads and writes, then yes. If you're concerned about availability, your best bet will be to stagger the compactions. Gary. On Fri, Feb 25, 2011 at 04:24, Daniel Josefsson
