Aleksey Yeschenko commented on CASSANDRA-8928:
----------------------------------------------
FWIW, {{SSTableDowngrader}} would be the most straightforward way to implement
CASSANDRA-8110, so I wouldn't rush and close this just because it's 'hard'. And
unless I'm misunderstanding the compatibility policy that would naturally
follow from our latest release process announcements, CASSANDRA-8110 is
something we'll need soon.

> Key: CASSANDRA-8928
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-8928
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Tools
> Reporter: Jeremy Hanna
> Priority: Minor
>
> As mentioned in other places such as CASSANDRA-8047 and in the wild,
> sometimes you need to go back. A downgrade sstables utility would be nice
> for a lot of reasons and I don't know that supporting going back to the
> previous major version format would be too much code since we already support
> reading the previous version.
