Jonathan Ellis updated CASSANDRA-4446:
--------------------------------------
Attachment: 4446.txt
System tables were not getting flushed. This is the source of the extra
replaying. Patch attached to fix this, and also parallelize flushing.
> nodetool drain sometimes doesn't mark commitlog fully flushed

> Key: CASSANDRA-4446
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-4446
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.0.10
> Environment: ubuntu 10.04 64bit
> Linux HOSTNAME 2.6.32-345-ec2 #48-Ubuntu SMP Wed May 2 19:29:55 UTC 2012

> I recently wiped a customer's QA cluster. I drained each node and verified
> that they were drained. When I restarted the nodes, I saw the commitlog
> replay create a memtable and then flush it. I have attached a sanitized log
> snippet from a representative node at the time.
> It appears to show the following :
> 1) Drain begins
> 2) Drain triggers flush
> 3) Flush triggers compaction
> 4) StorageService logs DRAINED message
> 5) compaction thread excepts
> 6) on restart, same CF creates a memtable
> 7) and then flushes it [1]
> The columnfamily involved in the replay in 7) is the CF for which the
> compaction thread excepted in 5). This seems to suggest a timing issue
> whereby the exception in 5) prevents the flush in 3) from marking all the
> segments flushed, causing them to replay after restart.
> In case it might be relevant, I did an online change of compaction strategy
> from Leveled to SizeTiered during the uptime period preceding this drain.
> [1] Isn't commitlog replay not supposed to automatically trigger a flush in
> modern cassandra?
