Migrating from Datastax Distribution to Apache Cassandra

Hi, We have Cassandra 3.7 installation on Ubuntu, from Datastax distribution (using the repo). Since Datastax has announced that they will no longer support a community Cassandra distribution, I want to migrate to Apache distribution. Are there any differences between distributions? Can I use t

cassandra node stops streaming data during nodetool rebuild

hi, we are trying to setup a new datacenter and are initalizing the data with nodetool rebuild. after some hours it seems that the node stopped streaming (at least there is no more streaming traffic on the network interface). nodetool netstats shows that the streaming is still in progress Mode:

Re: cassandra node stops streaming data during nodetool rebuild

What version are you running? Do you see any errors in the system.log (SocketTimeout, for instance)? And what values do you have for the following in cassandra.yaml: - - stream_throughput_outbound_megabits_per_sec - - compaction_throughput_mb_per_sec - - streaming_socket_timeout_in_ms -- Jacob Sh

Hi! we are on 3.7. we have some debug messages ... but i guess they are not related to that issue DEBUG [GossipStage:1] 2017-04-07 13:11:00,440 FailureDetector.java:456 - Ignoring interval time of 2002469610 for /192.168.0.27 DEBUG [GossipStage:1] 2017-04-07 13:11:00,441 FailureDetector.java:456

Did you look at the logs on the source DC as well? How big is the dataset? -- Jacob Shadix On Fri, Apr 7, 2017 at 7:16 AM, Roland Otta wrote: > Hi! > > we are on 3.7. > > we have some debug messages ... but i guess they are not related to that > issue > DEBUG [GossipStage:1] 2017-04-07 13:11:00

good point! on the source side i can see the following error ERROR [STREAM-OUT-/192.168.0.114:34094] 2017-04-06 17:18:56,532 StreamSession.java:529 - [Stream #41606030-1ad9-11e7-9f16-51230e2be4e9] Streaming error occurred on session with peer 10.192.116.1 through 192.168. 0.114 org.apache.cassa

@Boris, what formula did you use on homebrew and what is the git version of this formula ? Anyway the current cassandra formula is here : https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/master/Formula/cassandra.rb I am not a Homebrew developper, the formula does a lot of facy stuff, yet I see a re

Hi Jan, Thank you for the clarification and knowledge sharing. A follow-up question is: Does Cassandra need to read all sstables for customer_id = 1L if my query is: select view_id from customer_view where customer_id = 1L limit 1 Since I have the date_day as the clustering key and it is sorte

Re: cassandra node stops streaming data during nodetool rebuild

I don't see an issue with the size of the data / node. You can attempt the rebuild again and play around with throughput if your network can handle it. It can be changed on-the-fly with nodetool: nodetool setstreamthroughput This article is also worth a read - https://support.datastax.com/hc/en

Re: Migrating from Datastax Distribution to Apache Cassandra

Having done variants of this, I would suggest you bring up new nodes at approximately the same Apache version as a separate data center, in your same cluster. Replication strategy may need to be tweaked *...* *Daemeon C.M. ReiydelleUSA (+1) 415.501.0198London (+44) (0) 20 8144 9872* On Fr

Re: Migrating from Datastax Distribution to Apache Cassandra

This is prudent advice, but a rolling upgrade from DDC 3.7.0 to Apache Cassandra 3.10, after updating your sources.list should also work fine. Just back up all your configurations, and if your data is mission critical, follow good backup strategy for that, too. Testing the upgrade in your productio

too many compactions pending and compaction is slow on few tables

Hi, we are continuously loading a table which has properties properties compaction strategy LCS and bloom filter off and compactions are not catching up . Even the compaction is running slow on that table even after we increases throughput and concurrent compactors. Can someone point me to what I

Re: Migrating from Datastax Distribution to Apache Cassandra

Example DDC 3.7.0 to Apache Cassandra 3.10 upgrade with all default configs, no data, and both the DDC and Apache Cassandra lines in sources.list (sorry for any weird wrapping, but I think the list strips attachments): mshuler@hana:~$ apt-cache policy datastax-ddc cassandra datastax-ddc: Install

Re: too many compactions pending and compaction is slow on few tables

What version of Cassandra? How much data? How often are you reloading it? Is compaction throttled? What disks are you using? Any other load on the machine? On Fri, Apr 7, 2017 at 11:19 AM Giri P wrote: > Hi, > > we are continuously loading a table which has properties properties > compaction stra

Re: too many compactions pending and compaction is slow on few tables

It does as the "new" data, even if the values are the same, has new write time timestamp. Spinning disks are hard to run LCS on. Do you maybe have some kind of non stripe raid in place? On Fri, Apr 7, 2017 at 8:46 PM, Giri P wrote: > Does LCS try compacting already compacted files if it see same

Re: too many compactions pending and compaction is slow on few tables

Is not a good idea to do LCS on spinning. Change to STCS, and reduce the compactors to 2 (if you have more than 2). Check if that helps. On Apr 7, 2017 20:18, "Matija Gobec" wrote: > It does as the "new" data, even if the values are the same, has new write > time timestamp. > Spinning disks are
