    Status: Review In Progress  (was: Needs Committer)

> Nodetool import expects directory structure
> -------------------------------------------

>                 Key: CASSANDRA-19401
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-19401
>             Project: Cassandra
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Local/SSTable
>            Reporter: Norbert Schultz
>            Assignee: Stefan Miklosovic
>            Priority: Normal
>             Fix For: 4.0.x, 4.1.x, 5.0.x, 5.x
>
>          Time Spent: 1h 20m
>  Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> According to the 
> [documentation|https://cassandra.apache.org/doc/4.1/cassandra/operating/bulk_loading.html]
>  the nodetool import should not rely on the folder structure of the imported 
> sst files:
> {quote}
> Because the keyspace and table are specified on the command line for nodetool 
> import, there is not the same requirement as with sstableloader, to have the 
> SSTables in a specific directory path. When importing snapshots or 
> incremental backups with nodetool import, the SSTables don’t need to be 
> copied to another directory.
> {quote}
> However when importing old cassandra snapshots, we figured out, that sstables 
> still need to be in a directory called like $KEYSPACE/$TABLENAME files, even 
> when keyspace and table name are already present as parameters for the 
> nodetool import call.
> Call we used:
> {code}
> nodetool import --copy-data mykeyspace mytable /full_path_to/test1
> {code}
> Log:
> {code}
