Summary: Stopping a node during compaction can make already written files stay around Key: CASSANDRA-8124 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-8124 Project: Cassandra Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Marcus Eriksson Fix For: 2.1.1 In leveled compaction we generally create many files during compaction, in 2.0 we left the ones we had written as -tmp- files, in 2.1 we close and open the readers, removing the -tmp- markers. This means that any ongoing compactions will leave the resulting files around if we restart. Note that stop:ing the compaction will cause an exception and that makes us call abort() on the SSTableRewriter which removes the files. Guess a fix could be to keep the -tmp- marker and make -tmplink- files until we are actually done with the compaction. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
