Hi Ben, Many thanks. I had tried this command earlier too but I guess my syntax was wrong. This time I just issued nodetool rebuild dc1 and took the snapshot after this. I could see the *.db files created.
Earlier I was trying nodetool rebuild -- dc1 which I guess was wrong. Thanks for the lightning response.
