Re: Does Too many GC pauses can cause cassandra service DOWN.

[Bryan Cheng]

GC can absolutely cause a server to get marked down by a peer. See
https://support.datastax.com/hc/en-us/articles/204226199-Common-Causes-of-GC-pauses

As for tuning again we use CMS but this thread has some good G1 info that I
looked at while evaluating it:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-7486

Also Al's awesome tuning guide has some stuff, although its 2.1-centric so
might not be 100% applicable

On couple of servers  when cassandra service is down all i see only GC
pauses and load on these servers is not high when pauses happend, i haven't
found any thing else is that can be the reason or do i need to look at
something else ??

We are using G1GC any reference on how to adjust G1GC settings, as we can
not set New Heap in G1.


Thanks
