----------------------------------------
Summary: Upgradesstables cancels compactions unnecessarily
Key: CASSANDRA-13142
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-13142
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Kurt Greaves
Priority: Minor
Since at least 1.2 upgradesstables will cancel any compactions bar validations
when run. This was originally determined as a non-issue in CASSANDRA-3430
however can be quite annoying (especially with STCS) as a compaction will
output the new version anyway. Furthermore, as per CASSANDRA-12243 it also
stops things like view builds and I assume secondary index builds as well which
is not ideal.
We should avoid cancelling compactions unnecessarily.
I'd class this as a very minor bug, should at least be fixed from 3.0, but up
for debate. The main negative effect is annoying operators (which I tend to
rate pretty highly), but other than that there are no serious consequences.
