Hi Sean, In order to mitigate its impact, anticompaction is not fully executed when incremental repair is run with -pr. What you'll observe is that running repair on all nodes with -pr will leave sstables marked as unrepaired on all of them. Then, if you think about it you realize it's no big deal as -pr is useless with incremental repair : data is repaired only once with incremental repair, which is what -pr intended to fix on full repair, by repairing all token ranges only once instead of times the replication factor. Cheers, Le lun. 24 oct. 2016 18:05, Sean Bridges <sean.brid...@globalrelay.net<mailto:sean.brid...@globalrelay.net>> a écrit : Hey, In the datastax documentation on repair [1], it says, "The partitioner range option is recommended for routine maintenance. Do not use it to repair a downed node. Do not use with incremental repair (default for Cassandra 3.0 and later)." Why is it not recommended to use -pr with incremental repairs?
