Hello, On reading O'Reilly's Cassandra book and wiki, I'm a bit confusing on nodetool repair and compact. I believe we need to run nodetool repair regularly, and it synchronize all replica nodes at the end. According to the documents the "repair" invokes major compaction also (as side effect?). Will this "major compaction" apply on replica nodes too?
If I have 3 node ring and CF of RF=3, what should I do periodically on this system is: - nodetool repair on one of the nodes or - nodetool repair on one of the nodes, and nodetool compact on 2 of the nodes ? Thanks maki
