Does cassandra suffer from this same issue in 0.7? You would think it would at least warn if not prevent anticompaction if it knows there is a good chance of running out of space.

I was in a similar situation and luckily had snapshots to clear and
gain space but you are correct.  I would be careful of using the disk
more than 50% as the anit-compaction during cleanup could fail.

I don't have any experience with adding a data directory on the fly.

Did both but didn't seem to help. I have another drive on that machine with
some free space. If I add another directory to the DataFileDirectory config
and restart, will it start using that directory?

Anything else I can do?

This actually leads me to an important question. Should I always make sure
that Cassandra doesn't get past 50% of the drives free space, otherwise an
anticompaction like this can just destroy the machine?

Also, look for any snapshots that can be cleared with nodetool
clearsnapshot or just run the command to remove any that exist.

3 Node cluster and I just ran a nodetool cleanup on node #3. 1 and 2
are now at 100% disk space. What should I do?
Is there files with -tmp n their names ?
Try to remove them to free up disk space.
