Also before stopping I do : nodetool disablegossip nodetool disablethrift nodetool drain after that /etc/init.d/cassandra stop This seems reasonable/best practice. Do you verify the drain has completed before stopping? If I were you, I'd be looking for files with the name of the missing file in logs previous to the restart. It is pretty unusual for SSTables or their components to go missing.
I've noticed that compaction can continue to run after the drain has completed, and restarting while in the middle of the compaction can then cause similar problems.
Ciao, Duncan.
