Carl Yeksigian commented on CASSANDRA-10821:
--------------------------------------------
The restart issue you are having is caused by thinking that a cache is an
SSTable.This is probably caused by {{saved_cache_directory}} being a
subdirectory of one of the {{data_file_directories}}. I've created
CASSANDRA-10902 to track that issue.
That doesn't explain the OOM, though.

> Key: CASSANDRA-10821
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-10821
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Compaction
> Environment: EC2 32 x i2.xlarge split between us-east-1a,c and
> us-west 2a,b
> Linux 4.1.10-17.31.amzn1.x86_64 #1 SMP Sat Oct 24 01:31:37 UTC 2015 x86_64
> x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
> Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_65-b17)
> Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.65-b01, mixed mode)
> Cassandra version: 2.2.3
> Reporter: Thom Bartold
>
> We were writing to the DB from EC2 instances in us-east-1 at a rate of about
> 3000 per second, replication us-east:2 us-west:2, LeveledCompaction and
> DeflateCompressor.
> After about 48 hours some nodes had over 800 pending compactions and a few of
> them started getting killed for Linux OOM. Priam attempts to restart the
> nodes, but they fail because of corrupted saved_cahce files.
> Loading has finished, and the cluster is mostly idle, but 6 of the nodes were
> killed again last night by OOM.
> This is the log message where the node won't restart:
