Thanks for the links. @Colin: The Datastax doc about backup/restore (the one you linked to) is more about onsite backups, but not for remote backups. It did not described about what directories should I copy for backup to a remote location. After taking the snapshots should I copy all the snapshots directories within the tables directories to the remote location or do I need to copy the entire "data" directory & "commitlog" directory.
Another way rather than snapshot, could be to flush all the keyspaces, CFs & then copy the data & commitlog directory to remote location, isn't it ? What directories/files needs to be copied for a remote location backup ?
