There is potentially a DSE specific issue that you are running into and you should probably contact Datastax support to confirm. Also, keep in mind that Cassandra does recycle it's commitlog files instead of deleting and recreating them, so you shouldn't expect them to disappear even when the node isn't being actively written to.
