Re: Balancing tokens over 2 datacenter

2016-04-14 Thread Walsh, Stephen
Thanks Guys,

I tend to agree that its a viable configuration, (but I’m biased)
We use datadog monitoring to view read writes per node,

We see all the writes are balanced (due to the replication factor) but all 
reads only go to DC1.
So with the configuration I believed confirmed :)

Any way to balance the primary tokens over the two DC’s? :)

100% ownership on all nodes isn’t wrong with 3 nodes in each of 2 Dcs with RF=3 
in both of those Dcs. That’s exactly what you’d expect it to be, and a 
perfectly viable production config for many workloads.

Hi Stephen Walsh,

As per the nodetool output, every node owns 100% of the range. This indicates 
wrong configuration. It would be good, if you verify and share following 
properties of yaml on all nodes:

Num tokens,seeds, cluster name,listen address, initial token.

Also, which snitch are you using? If you use propertyfilesnitch, please share 
cassandra-topology.properties too.



Thanks

Steve,

This cluster looks just great.

Now, due to a miss configuration in our application, we saw that our 
application in both DC’s where pointing to DC1.

This is the only thing to solve, and it happens in the client side 
configuration.

What client do you use?

Are you using something like 'new DCAwareRoundRobinPolicy("DC1"));' as pointed 
in Bhuvan's link 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22813045/ability-to-write-to-a-particular-cassandra-node
 ? You can use some other

Then make sure to deploy this on clients on that need to use 'DC1' and 'new 
DCAwareRoundRobinPolicy("DC2")' on client that should be using 'DC2'.

Make sure ports are open.

This should be it,

Hi Steve,
 
As such, all keyspaces and tables where created on DC1.

I think this is not exactly true. When tables are created, they are created on 
a specific keyspace, no matter where you send the alter schema command, schema 
will propagate to all the datacenters the keyspace is replicated to.

So the question is: Is your keyspace using 'DC1: 3, DC2: 3' as replication 
factors? Could you show us the schema and a nodetool status as well?

WE’ve tried doing , nodetool repair / cleanup – but the reads always go to DC1

Trying to do random things is often not a good idea. For example, as each node 
holds 100% of the data, cleanup is an expensive no-op :-).

Anyone know how to rebalance the tokens over DC’s?

Yes, I can help on that, but I need to know your current status.

Basically, your(s) keyspace(s) must be using RF of 3 on the 2 DCs as mentioned, 
your client

your client to be configured to stick to the DC in their zone (use a DCAware

If you need more detailed help, let us know what is unclear to you and provide

I think this is not exactly true. When tables are created, they are created on 
a specific keyspace, no matter where you send the alter schema command, schema 
will propagate to all the datacenters the keyspace is replicated to.

So the question is: Is your keyspace using 'DC1: 3, DC2: 3' as replication 
factors? Could you show us the schema and a nodetool status as well?

WE’ve tried doing , nodetool repair / cleanup – but the reads always go to DC1

Trying to do random things is often not a good idea. For example, as each node 
holds 100% of the data, cleanup is an expensive no-op :-).

Anyone know how to rebalance the tokens over DC’s?

Yes, I can help on that, but I need to know your current status.

Basically, your(s) keyspace(s) must be using RF of 3 on the 2 DCs as mentioned, 
your client to be configured to stick to the DC in their zone (use a DCAware 
policy with the DC name + LOCAL_ONE/QUORUM, see Bhuvan's links) and things 
should be better.

If you need more detailed help, let us know what is unclear to you and provide 
us with 'nodetool status' output and with your schema (at least keyspaces 
config).

Balancing tokens over 2 datacenter

2016-04-13 Thread Walsh, Stephen
Hi there,

So we have 2 datacenter with 3 nodes each.
Replication factor is 3 per DC (so each node has all data)

We have an application in each DC that writes that Cassandra DC.

Now, due to a miss configuration in our application, we saw that our 
application in both DC’s where pointing to DC1.

As such, all keyspaces and tables where created on DC1.
The effect of this is that all reads are now going to DC1 and ignoring DC2

WE’ve tried doing , nodetool repair / cleanup – but the reads always go to DC1?

Anyone know how to rebalance the tokens over DC’s?

Steve
