I am using DseDelegateSnitch Thanks,SC From: aa...@thelastpickle.com Subject: Re: cluster issues Date: Tue, 29 Jan 2013 20:15:45 +1300 To: user@cassandra.apache.org
We can always be proactive in keeping the time sync. But, Is there any way to recover from a time drift (in a reactive manner)? Since it was a lab environment, I dropped the KS (deleted data directory)There is a way to remove future dated columns, but it not for the faint hearted. Basically:1) Drop the gc_grace_seconds to 02) Delete the column with a timestamp way in the future, so it is guaranteed to be higher than the value you want to delete. 3) Flush the CF4) Compact all the SSTables that contain the row. The easiest way to do that is a major compaction, but we normally advise not to do that because it creates one big file. You can also do a user defined compaction. Are there any other scenarios that would lead a cluster look like below? Note:Actual topology of the cluster - ONE Cassandra node and TWO Analytic nodes.What snitch are you using?If you have the property file snitch do all nodes have the same configuration ? There is a lot of sickness there. If possible I would scrub and start again.
