Hi, I changed compaction strategy from 'size tiered' to 'leveled' but after running a few days C* still tries to compacting some old large sstables, say:
1. I have 6 disks per node and 6 data directories per disk 2. There are some old huge sstables generated when using 'sized tiered' compaction stragegy, about 1.3T / sstable. 3. C* is always trying to compact about 3-4 huge sstables, and result in a very huge tmp file which occupied all the disk space and make C* throw an exception with "no space left on device" and then stopped. 4. Current compaction strategy is already 'leveled', but I don't know why C* still tries to compact these huge old sstables. So my questions: 1. Is there a way to stop C* compacting these old huge sstables? 2. Is there a way to convert these old huge sstables into small 'leveled' ones? I tried 'sstablesplit' but always got an error with java EOF exception. Thanks
