Benedict commented on CASSANDRA-10421:
--------------------------------------
None of these approaches are optimal, as they lose any pretence of atomicity.
However CASSANDRA-6696 will solve this problem for us, so assuming that is
delivered in 3.2, we only have to survive until then (although we must survive
the full 3.0.x line, unfortunately). So whatever seems like the least
unpleasant approach to tide us over, I guess.

> When creating a new LogTransaction we try to create the new logfile in the
> same directory as the one we are writing to, but as we use
> {{[directories.getDirectoryForNewSSTables()|https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/trunk/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/db/lifecycle/LogTransaction.java#L125]}}
> this might end up in "any" of the configured data directories. If it does,
> we will not be able to clean up leftovers as we check for files in the same
> directory as the logfile was created:
