Nick Bailey commented on CASSANDRA-6326:
----------------------------------------
Well each snapshot has a schema associated with it. If you drop a column family
you need to recreate it before you can restore a snapshot to it. Presumably we
can pull the relevant information out of the system.schema_* tables that would
allow recreating a schema before restoring.
> Snapshot should create manifest file

> 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.
