Dikang Gu created CASSANDRA-13019: ------------------------------------- Summary: Improve clearsnapshot command to delete the snapshot files slowly. Key: CASSANDRA-13019 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-13019 Project: Cassandra Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Dikang Gu Assignee: Dikang Gu Fix For: 3.x
In our environment, we are creating snapshots for backup, after we finish the backup, we are running {{clearsnapshot}} to delete the snapshot files. At that time we may have thousands of files to delete, and it's causing sudden disk usage spike. As a result, we are experiencing a spike of drop messages from Cassandra. I think we should implement something like {{slowrm}} to delete the snapshot files slowly, avoid the sudden disk usage spike. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
