Hello ! I am having a recurrent problem when trying to bootstrap a few new nodes.
Some general info : - I am running cassandra 3.0.17 - We have about 30 nodes in our cluster - All healthy nodes have between 60% to 90% used disk space on /var/lib/cassandra So I create a new node and let auto_bootstrap do it's job. After a few days the bootstrapping node stops streaming new data but is still not a member of the cluster. `nodetool status` says the node is still joining, When this happens I run `nodetool bootstrap resume`. This usually ends up in two different ways : 1. The node fills up to 100% disk space and crashes. 2. The bootstrap resume finishes with errors When I look at `nodetool netstats -H` is looks like `bootstrap resume` does not resume but restarts a full transfer of every data from every node. This is the output I get from `nodetool resume` : > [2019-02-06 01:39:14,369] received file >> /var/lib/cassandra/raw/raw_17930-d7cc0590230d11e9bc0af381b0ee7ac6/mc-225-big-Data.db >> (progress: 2113%) > > [2019-02-06 01:39:16,821] received file >> /var/lib/cassandra/data/system_distributed/repair_history-759fffad624b318180eefa9a52d1f627/mc-88-big-Data.db >> (progress: 2113%) > > [2019-02-06 01:39:17,003] received file >> /var/lib/cassandra/data/system_distributed/repair_history-759fffad624b318180eefa9a52d1f627/mc-89-big-Data.db >> (progress: 2113%) > > [2019-02-06 01:39:17,032] session with /10.16.XX.YYY complete (progress: >> 2113%) > > [2019-02-06 01:41:15,160] received file >> /var/lib/cassandra/raw/raw_17930-d7cc0590230d11e9bc0af381b0ee7ac6/mc-220-big-Data.db >> (progress: 2113%) > > [2019-02-06 01:42:02,864] received file >> /var/lib/cassandra/raw/raw_17930-d7cc0590230d11e9bc0af381b0ee7ac6/mc-226-big-Data.db >> (progress: 2113%) > > [2019-02-06 01:42:09,284] received file >> /var/lib/cassandra/raw/raw_17930-d7cc0590230d11e9bc0af381b0ee7ac6/mc-227-big-Data.db >> (progress: 2113%) > > [2019-02-06 01:42:10,522] received file >> /var/lib/cassandra/raw/raw_17930-d7cc0590230d11e9bc0af381b0ee7ac6/mc-228-big-Data.db >> (progress: 2113%) > > [2019-02-06 01:42:10,622] received file >> /var/lib/cassandra/raw/raw_17930-d7cc0590230d11e9bc0af381b0ee7ac6/mc-229-big-Data.db >> (progress: 2113%) > > [2019-02-06 01:42:11,925] received file >> /var/lib/cassandra/data/system_distributed/repair_history-759fffad624b318180eefa9a52d1f627/mc-90-big-Data.db >> (progress: 2114%) > > [2019-02-06 01:42:14,887] received file >> /var/lib/cassandra/data/system_distributed/repair_history-759fffad624b318180eefa9a52d1f627/mc-91-big-Data.db >> (progress: 2114%) > > [2019-02-06 01:42:14,980] session with /10.16.XX.ZZZ complete (progress: >> 2114%) > > [2019-02-06 01:42:14,980] Stream failed > > [2019-02-06 01:42:14,982] Error during bootstrap: Stream failed > > [2019-02-06 01:42:14,982] Resume bootstrap complete > > The bootstrap `progress` goes way over 100% and eventually fails. Right now I have a node with this output from `nodetool status` : `UJ 10.16.XX.YYY 2.93 TB 256 ? 5788f061-a3c0-46af-b712-ebeecd397bf7 c` It is almost filled with data, yet if I look at `nodetool netstats` : > Receiving 480 files, 325.39 GB total.

Am I missing something about the way `nodetool bootstrap resume` is supposed to be used ? Regards, Leo
