What is best Cassandra client?

Hi All, What is the best client to use? I want to use CQL 3.0.3 and have support for preparedStatmements. I tried JDBC and the thrift client so far.   Thanks!

going down from RF=3 to RF=2, repair constantly falls over with JVM OOM

Hi, We've made the mistake of letting our nodes get too large, now holding about 3TB each. We ran out of enough free space to have a successful compaction, and because we're on 1.0.7, enabling compression to get out of the mess wasn't feasible. We tried adding another node, but we think this may h

Re: going down from RF=3 to RF=2, repair constantly falls over with JVM OOM

I don't think you need to run repair if you decrease RF. At least I wouldn't do it. In case of *decreasing* RF have 3 nodes containing some data, but only 2 of them should store them from now on, so you should rather run cleanup, instead of repair, toget rid of the data on 3rd replica. And I g

Re: Partitioner type

Yeah its possible, It depends on which client you're using. e,g. In pycassa(python client for cassandra), I use >> import pycassa >> from pycassa.system_manager import * >> sys = SystemManager('hostname:portnumber') >> sys.describe_partitioner() On Thu, Jul 4, 2013 at 5:32 PM, Vivek Mishra wr

Re: Partitioner type

yes, you can query local CF in system keyspace: select partitioner from system.local; H On 4 July 2013 13:02, Vivek Mishra wrote: > Hi, > Is it possible to know, type of partitioner programmitcally at runtime? > > -Vivek >

Re: going down from RF=3 to RF=2, repair constantly falls over with JVM OOM

@Michal: all true, a clean up would certainly remove a lot of useless data there, and I also advice Evan to do it. However, Evan may want to continue repairing his cluster as a routine operation an there is no reason a RF change shouldn't lead to this kind of issues. @Evan : With this amount of da

Restart node => hinted handoff flood

Hi, Using C*1.2.2 12 EC2 xLarge cluster. When I restart a node, if it spend a few minutes down, when I bring it up, all the cpu are blocked at 100%, even once compactions are disabled, inducing a very big and intolerable latency in my app. I suspect Hinted Handoff to be the cause of this. disabli

Re: Restart node => hinted handoff flood

The point is that there is no way, afaik, to limit the speed of these Hinted Handoff since it's not a stream like repair or bootstrap, no way either to keep the node out of the ring during the time it is receiving hints since hints and "normal" traffic both go through gossip protocol on port 7000.

Migrating data from 2 node cluster to a 3 node cluster

We are planning to move data from a 2 node cluster to a 3 node cluster. We are planning to copy the data from the two nodes (snapshot) to the new 2 nodes and hoping that Cassandra will sync it to the third node. Will this work ? are there any other commands to run after we are done migrating, like

Re: Migrating data from 2 node cluster to a 3 node cluster

You should run a nodetool repair after you copy the data over. You could also use the sstable loader, which would stream the data to the proper node. On Thu, Jul 4, 2013 at 10:03 AM, srmore wrote: > We are planning to move data from a 2 node cluster to a 3 node cluster. We > are planning to co

CQL and IN

You can use the actual item_ids however, Select * from items Where item_id IN (1, 2, 3, ..., n) On 4 July 2013 23:16, Rui Vieira wrote: > CQL does not support sub-queries. > > > On 4 July 2013 22:53, Tony Anecito wrote: > >> Hi All, >> >> I am using the DataStax driver and got prepared to wor

Re: Restart node => hinted handoff flood

My blind guess is: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-5179 In our case the only sensible solution was to pause hints delivery and disable storing them (both done with a nodetool: pausehandoff and disablehandoff). Once they TTL'd (3 hours by default I believe?) I turned HH on again
