I use nodetool to set cache capacity on a certain node but the settings are "forgotten" after a few minutes.
I run: $ nodetool -h localhost -p 9004 setcachecapacity outbrain_kvdb KvImpressions 10000000 1000000 And then run nodetool cfstats immediately after and the settings are effective, I see the correct cache settings. However, after a few minutes, and I'm not sure what the trigger really is, the settings are forgotten and the host returns to the cache settings it had read when it was booted. I even updated storage-config,xml thinking maybe the server re-reads the value from the actual file, but as it seems, it looks like it's reading values stored in its memory when booted. Of course I can just restart the server so values from the file will take effect, but I don't want to start with a cold cache again, I want to increase cache size while it's hot. ...or am I using the tool incorrectly? I'm setting the cache capacity for only one host in the ring, not all hosts. Thanks
