Hello guys,

I'm trying to remove a column family but without success.

I have a simple 3 nodes Cassandra 0.7 cluster, a keyspaces with replication 
factor 2 and a super column within this keyspace with around 200,000 rows. I'm 
using cassandra-cli:

-          drop column family CFName; throws the following exception: 
"java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "ln": java.io.IOException: error=12, 
Cannot allocate memory"

-          truncate CFName; immediately responds with "null"

-          drop keyspace KSName; also throws the above exception

I can remove without any problem a newly created column family.

Any idea of what might be wrong?

Thank you in advance,
George
