The only option to stream decommissioned node's data is to run "nodetool decommission" on the decommissioned node (while cassandra is running on the node)
removenode only streams data from node's relpica, so any data that only stored on decommissioned node would be lost. You should monitoring streaming status by "nodetool netstats" on all nodes, to see if it has only progress. if it stuck on any node, check that node's logs to find out the reason. Normally i try removenode 3 times, if none succeeded then i run "nodetool assasinate" Sent using https://www.zoho.com/mail/ ---- On Mon, 11 Mar 2019 16:02:19 +0330 Ahmed Eljami <ahmed.elj...@gmail.com> wrote ---- Thx onmstester, I Thnik that remove node dont stream data : refer to blog of TLP : http://thelastpickle.com/blog/2018/09/18/assassinate.html Will NOT stream any of the decommissioned node’s data to the new replicas. Anyway, I have already launched a remove node but it continues to appear DL after 72 hours. So I want to know if I should execute one again a removenode with force or go directly to assasinate and the diff between. THx
