Yes Robert, I already cleared the snapshots. After that, the used disk space is:
10.x.x.b@$ df -h /mnt/cassandra Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/xvdb1 745G 174G 572G 24% /mnt/cassandra But, the cluster shows me a different thing: $ nodetool status Datacenter: us-east =================== Status=Up/Down |/ State=Normal/Leaving/Joining/Moving -- Address Load Tokens Owns (effective) Host ID Rack UN 10.x.x.a 420.74 GB 256 66.7% eed9e9f5-f279-4b2f-b521-c056cbf65b52 1c UN 10.x.x.b 416.42 GB 256 68.3% 19492c26-4458-4a0b-af04-72e0aab6598e 1c UN 10.x.x.c 165.15 GB 256 64.9% b8da952c-24b3-444a-a34e-7a1804eee6e6 1c I do not understand why the cluster still sees even more data before adding the third node. Thanks a lot!!
