There have been a history of leaks where repairs are multiple repairs were run on the same node at the same time ( e.g: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-11215 )
You’re running a very old version of Cassandra. If you’re able to upgrade to newest 2.1 or 2.2, it’s likely that at least SOME similar bugs are addressed.

These open file handles keep on increasing with time and eventually lead to disk crisis. This is visible via lsof command. There are no Exceptions in logs.We are suspecting a race condition where compactions/repairs and reads are done on same sstable. I have gone through few JIRAs but somehow not able to coorelate the issue with those tickets. We are using 2.0.14. OS is Red Hat Linux. Any suggestions?
