Thanks Jonathan. But I need to know the following:
If you issue a “nodetool repair” on one node will it repair all the nodes in the cluster or only the one on which we issue the command? If it repairs only one node, do I have to wait that the nodetool repair ends, and only then issue another “nodetool repair” on the next node?

If you're open source, check out Spotify cassandra reaper, it'll manage it for you. https://github.com/spotify/cassandra-reaper On Thu, Jun 18, 2015 at 12:36 PM Jean Tremblay <jean.tremb...@zen-innovations.com<mailto:jean.tremb...@zen-innovations.com>> wrote: Hi, I want to make on a regular base repairs on my cluster as suggested by the documentation. I want to do this in a way that the cluster is still responding to read requests. So I understand that I should not use the -par switch for that as it will do the repair in parallel and consume all available resources.

If we had down time periods I would issue a nodetool -par, but we don’t have down time periods. Sorry for the stupid questions. Thanks for your help.
