Yeah it happens from time to time even if everything seems to be fine that schema changes don't work correctly. But it's always repairable with the described procedure. Therefore the operator being available is a must have I think.
Drain is a nodetool command. The node flushes data and stops accepting new writes. This just speeds up bringing the node back up again in this case. Probably a flush is equally acceptable. -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: mcasandra [mailto:mohitanch...@gmail.com] Gesendet: Montag, 18.

I don't think it was because of node being down. I tihnk for some reason it just took over 10 secs because I was reducing key_cache from 1M to 1000. I think it might be taking long to trim the keys hence 10 sec default may not be the right way. What is drain? -- View this message in context: http://cassandra-user-incubator-apache-org.3065146.n2.nabble.com/Two-versions-of-schema-tp6277365p6284276.html Sent from the cassandra-u...@incubator.apache.org mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
