Tombstone is a marker indicating the record to be deleted. gc_grace_seconds is the time after which the record will be deleted physically from the node. There is no ad-hoc way of gc'ing tombstones. Only after gc_grace_seconds the tombstones will be gc'ed. Thanks, Jahangir Mohammed. On Thu

Re: timeout while doing repair

Do you use any client which gives you this timeout ? If you don't specify any timeout from client, look at rpc_timeout_in_ms. Increase it and see if you still suffer this. Repair is a costly process. Thanks, Jahangir Mohammed. On Thu, Nov 24, 2011 at 2:45 AM, Patrik Modesto patrik.mode

That will give you a snapshot of thread pools. You should look at ROW-READ-STAGE and see pending and active. If there are many pending, it means that the cluster is not able to keep up with the read requests coming along. Thanks, Jahangir Mohammed. On Thu, Nov 24, 2011 at 2:14 PM, Patrik Modesto

IMHO, you should start with something very simple RDBMS and meanwhile getting handle over Cassandra or other noSql technology. Start out with simple, but always be aware and conscious of the next thing you will have in stack. It's timetaking to work with new technology if you are in the phase of

Have this weird issue. Initially, it was jvm crashing with Segmentation fault errors. Once I updated it, it did solve the problem that jvm isn't crashing. This time cassandra process just dies without any warning in the logs. To note specifics of the node: 98GB RAM 400 GB Disk Space Currently
