1) i am using below commands for coping data
COPY events.standardevents (uuid, data, name, time, tracker, type, userid) TO 'temp.csv'; truncate standardevents; COPY event.standardeventstemp (uuid, data, name, time, tracker, type, userid) FROM 'temp.csv'; if table is not containing any field with uuid data-type above commands are working fine but if it is containig data-type as a uuid then it is giving me below error Bad Request: Invalid STRING constant (3a1ccec0-ef77-11e3-9e56-22000ae3163a) for name of type uuid aborting import at column #0, previously inserted values are still present. Below is the description of my column-family CREATE TABLE standardevents ( uuid uuid PRIMARY KEY, data text, name text, time text, tracker text, type text, userid text ) WITH bloom_filter_fp_chance=0.010000 AND caching='KEYS_ONLY' AND comment='' AND dclocal_read_repair_chance=0.000000 AND gc_grace_seconds=864000 AND read_repair_chance=0.100000 AND replicate_on_write='true' AND populate_io_cache_on_flush='false' AND compaction={'class': 'SizeTieredCompactionStrategy'} AND compression={'sstable_compression': 'SnappyCompressor'}; 2) Facing problem of Heap is 0.8116662666877581 full checked the logs getting below messages GCInspector.java (line 142) Heap is 0.8116662666877581 full. You may need to reduce memtable and/or cache sizes. Cassandra will now flush up to the two largest memtables to free up memory. Adjust flush_largest_memtables_at threshold in cassandra.yaml if you don't want Cassandra to do this automatically StorageService.java (line 3512) Unable to reduce heap usage since there are no dirty column families i checked the cassandra-en.sh file currently it is occuping MAX_HEAP_SIZE="4G" HEAP_NEWSIZE="800M" which i guess is maximum. because of this constanly getting heap size error on every command.
