Hi!
I ran
UPDATE COLUMN FAMILY cf_name WITH
compression_options={sstable_compression:SnappyCompressor,
chunk_length_kb:64};

I then ran on all my nodes (3)
sudo nodetool -h localhost scrub tok cf_name

I have replication factor 3. The size of the data on disk was cut in half
in the first node and in the jmx I can see that indeed the compression
ration is 0.46. But on nodes 2 and 3 nothing happened. In the jmx I can see
that compression ratio is 0 and the size of the files of disk stayed the
same.

In cli

ColumnFamily: cf_name
      Key Validation Class: org.apache.cassandra.db.marshal.UUIDType
      Default column value validator:
org.apache.cassandra.db.marshal.UTF8Type
      Columns sorted by:
org.apache.cassandra.db.marshal.CompositeType(org.apache.cassandra.db.marshal.UTF8Type,org.apache.cassandra.db.marshal.UTF8Type)
      Row cache size / save period in seconds / keys to save : 0.0/0/all
      Row Cache Provider:
org.apache.cassandra.cache.SerializingCacheProvider
      Key cache size / save period in seconds: 200000.0/14400
      GC grace seconds: 864000
      Compaction min/max thresholds: 4/32
      Read repair chance: 1.0
      Replicate on write: true
      Bloom Filter FP chance: default
      Built indexes: []
      Compaction Strategy:
org.apache.cassandra.db.compaction.SizeTieredCompactionStrategy
      Compression Options:
        chunk_length_kb: 64
        sstable_compression:
org.apache.cassandra.io.compress.SnappyCompressor

Can anyone help?
Thanks
