Nick Bailey commented on CASSANDRA-6326:
----------------------------------------
It should come naturally as part of this ticket, but Cassandra also doesn't
create the directory tree for a snapshot if there aren't actually any sstables
to snapshot. It isn't a huge deal but Its hard to tell if a snapshot was ever
taken at all. Creating the directory tree even if it is empty would be
preferrable.
> Snapshot should create manifest file

> Key: CASSANDRA-6326
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6326
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core
> Reporter: sankalp kohli
> Assignee: sankalp kohli
> Priority: Minor
>
> We should create a manifest file as part of the snapshot which should contain
> all the stables included in the snapshot.
> This will be very important for systems consuming this snapshot as they can
> validate the fact that they got the complete snapshot.
> If Cassandra crashes mid way creating a snapshot, I think it will create an
> incomplete snapshot.
