When I upgraded I did it in 2 stages.
Upgrade from 0.7.6 to 1.0.0 Run scrub on each node. Run repair on the cluster Upgrade to 1.0.3 Is it safe to run scrub again? Because it did not seem to help when I updated it to 1.0.0 Was there a bug in the scrub process in 1.0.0? What is the best way to handle this to solve and get a valid environment?

That will re-write all the sstables and remove the old ones. If not run a scrub now and it will re-write the data with a -hb- format in the file name.

It would be a really good idea to at least be on 8.X, preferably 1.0 Pre 1.0 compacted SSTables were removed during JVM GC, but compacted SSTables have a .Compacted file created so we know they are no longer needed. These SSTables look like secondary index files. It may be a bug if they are not included in the incremental backups.

I did restart for all the nodes and now I can see files in backup folders so It seems like it is working. During this process I have noticed to something very strange In data/City folder there are files that are not created in the snapshot folder (it looks like old orphaned files) Is there any process of cassandta that will delete uneeded files I tried to run nodetool cleanup but it did not help.

Hope this will help. Alain 2012/1/18 Michael Vaknine <micha...@citypath.com> Hi, I am configured to do incremental backups on all my node on the cluster but it is not working. In cassandra.yaml : incremental_backups: true When I check data folder there are some keyspaces that has folder backups but empty and I suspect this is a folder created in the past when I had 0.7.6 version. In a new creted Keyspace the folder does not exists. Does someone know if I need to configure any thing besides cassandra.yaml for this to work? Thanks Michael
