Daniel Nuriyev commented on CASSANDRA-7471:
-------------------------------------------
Daniel@NetApp:
The fastest way to restore a large database is to stop a node, delete the
current data files, place files from a back-up in their places, start a node.
In this scenario, ignore-ttl should be passed to bin/cassandra and to
bin\cassandra.bat. Passing the flag to the start-up script allows for an easy
and quick programmatic restore.
> sstableloader should have the ability to strip ttls

> Key: CASSANDRA-7471
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-7471
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Tools
> Reporter: Tupshin Harper
> Priority: Minor
>
> When restoring data from backup, for reasons of data recovery or analysis, if
> the data was set to TTL, then some or all of the data will be inaccessible
> unless you either force your entire cluster to have their clocks set in the
> past, or by slowly and painfully using sstable2json, stripping ttls there,
> and then json2sstable before loading.
> I propose a flag "-ignore-ttl" that could be based to sstableloader that
> would automatically strip any ttls from cells as they are loaded
