Hi,
the docs give me an impression that repairing should be run manually,
and not put in crontab for default. Should each repair run be monitored
manually?
If I would like to put "repair -pr" in crontab for each node, with a few
hour difference between the runs, are there any risks with such setup?
Specifically:
- if two or more "repair -pr" runs on different nodes are running at the
same time, can it cause any problems besides high load?
- can "repair -pr" be run simultaneously on all nodes at the same time?
- I'm using the default gc_grace_period of 10 days. Are there any
reasons to run repairing more often that once per 10 days, for a case
when previous repairing fails?
- how to monitor start and finish times of repairs, and if the runs were
successful? Does the "nodetool repair" command is guaranteed to exit
only after the repair is finished and does it return a status code to a
shell?
