Brandon Williams commented on CASSANDRA-7255:
---------------------------------------------
bq. That said, the one downside of changing it is that it might break existing
user scripts and require fixing all docs
Well, presumably that extends further as we'd rename the jmx method as well, so
not just scripts but also anything using jmx.
> Rename nodetool cleanup

> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Tools
> Reporter: Tyler Hobbs
> Priority: Trivial
>
> A lot of cassandra users seem to think nodetool cleanup does all kinds of
> things that it doesn't. For example, you'll find a lot of quotes like this
> in IRC and on the mailing list:
> bq. you need to run 'nodetool cleanup' to make sure all tombstones are deleted
> Renaming it to something clearer could help cut down on the confusion.
> Perhaps "nodetool cleanranges" or "nodetool trim".
