Hi,
I am a newbie when it comes to Cassandra administration and operation. We
have a single node cluster running 2.1 in EC2 and we are planning to move
it to better single machine instance and want to run 3.2 on that.
I installed 3.2 on the new machine and created a snapshot of the old
cluster and then copied over all the relevant directories to the new
machine in the appropriate directory. Specifically I copied
"/var/lib/cassandra/data/{keyspace} from old machine to the new machine.
Before that I created relevant schema in the new cluster. I was hoping that
Cassandra would see new directories and load up the new copied SSTables
automatically. At the least I was hoping to see the snapshot created in the
old cluster, when I did a "nodetool listsnapshots" in the new cluster.
I have also changed the name of the new cluster.
Please help me and let me know if I forgot to add any detail.
Cheers,
Ajaya
