             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.
