hi, i am using version 0.7-rc2 and pelops-c642967 from java. when i try to export all the data in a column family i don't get all of the data that was inserted. i suspect that this points to an underlying problem with the get_range_slices method.
i can reproduce the problem just using the command line interface as follows: 1) create a 2 node cluster using the default cassandra.yml with these changes: * set the initial token for the 1st node: initial_token: 0 * set the initial token for the 2nd node: initial_token: 85070591730234615865843651857942052864 *comment out: #listen_address: localhost #rpc_address: localhost *set the seeds (change ip's) seeds: - 17.224.109.80 - 17.224.109.81 2) start both nodes 3) put these commands in a file called schema.txt create keyspace Test with replication_factor = 1 and placement_strategy = 'org.apache.cassandra.locator.SimpleStrategy'; use Test; create column family Configs with column_type = 'Standard' and comparator = 'UTF8Type'; and load them with the command line tool like this: ./bin/cassandra-cli --host 17.224.109.80 < schema.txt 4) put these commands in a file called config.txt use Test; set Configs['row-a']['key-a'] = '1'; set Configs['row-a']['key-b'] = '2'; set Configs['row-a']['key-c'] = '3'; set Configs['row-b']['key-a'] = '4'; set Configs['row-b']['key-b'] = '5'; set Configs['row-b']['key-c'] = '6'; set Configs['row-c']['key-a'] = '7'; set Configs['row-c']['key-b'] = '8'; set Configs['row-c']['key-c'] = '9'; and load them with the command line tool like this: ./bin/cassandra-cli --host 17.224.109.80 < config.txt 5) now start the command line tool and try to list the Configs column family: ./bin/cassandra-cli --host 17.224.109.80 Connected to: "Test Cluster" on 17.224.109.80/9160 Welcome to cassandra CLI.
