Hi all, I know there has been several threads recently on this but I wanted to make sure I got a clear answer: we are looking to increase our SSTable size for a couple of our LCS tables as well as chunk size (to match the SSD block size). The largest table is at 500 GB across 6 nodes (RF 3, C* 1.2.4 VNodes). I wanted to get feedback on the best way to make this change with minimal load impact on the cluster. After I make the change, I understand that I need to force the nodes to re-compact the tables.
Can this be done via upgrade sstables or do I need to shutdown the node, delete the .json file, and restart as some have suggested? I assume I can do this one node at a time? If I change the bloom filter size, I assume I will need to force compaction again? Using the same methodology? Thank you
