Re: Cassandra OOM on joining existing ring
Are you on the azure premium storage?

Secondary indexes are built for convenience not performance.

What's your compaction strategy? Your nodes have to come up in order for
them to start compacting.

Hi,
Looks like that is my primary problem - the sstable count for the
daily_challenges column family is 5k. Azure had scheduled maintenance
window on Sat. All the VMs got rebooted one by one - including the current
cassandra one - and it's taking forever to bring cassandra back up online.
Is there any way I can re-organize my existing data? so that I can bring
down that count?
I don't want to lose that data.
If possible, can I do that while cassandra is down? As I mentioned, it's
taking forever to get the service up - it's stuck in reading those 5k
sstable (+ another 5k of corresponding secondary index) files. :(
Oh, did I mention I'm new to cassandra?

460 is high, I like to keep my partitions under 100mb when possible. I've
seen worse though. The fix is to add something else (maybe month or week or
something) into your partition key:
PRIMARY KEY ((segment_type, something_else), date, user_id, sess_id)

okay to copy the env.sh over from the C* 3.0 link I shared once you
uncomment and tweak the MAX_HEAP. If there's something wrong your node

Re: Cassandra OOM on joining existing ring
We faced similar issue where we had 60k sstables due to coldness bug in 2.0.3. We solved it by following Datastax recommendation for Production at http://docs.datastax.com/en/cassandra/1.2/cassandra/install/installRecommendSettings.html : Step 1 : Add the following line to /etc/sysctl.conf : vm.max_map_count = 131072 Step 2: To make the changes take effect, reboot the server or run the following command: $ sudo sysctl -p Step 3(optional): To confirm the limits are applied to the Cassandra process, run the following command where pid is the process ID of the currently running Cassandra process: $ cat /proc/pid/limits You can try above settings and share your results..

Re: Cassandra OOM on joining existing ring
I'm new to cassandra How do I find those out? - mainly, the partition params that you asked for. Others, I think I can figure out. We don't have any large objects/blobs in the column values - it's all textual, date-time, numeric and uuid data. We use cassandra to primarily store segmentation data - with segment type as partition key. That is again divided into two separate column families; but they have similar structure. Columns per row can be fairly large - each segment type as the row key and associated user ids and timestamp as column value.

Re: Cassandra OOM on joining existing ring
You, and only you, are responsible for knowing your data and data model. If columns per row or rows per partition can be large, then an 8GB system is probably too small. But the real issue is that you need to keep your partition size from getting too large. Generally, an 8GB system is okay, but only for reasonably-sized partitions, like under 10MB. -- Jack Krupansky On Fri, Jul 10, 2015 at 8:05 AM, Kunal Gangakhedkar kgangakhed...@gmail.com wrote: I'm new to cassandra How do I find those out? - mainly, the partition params that you asked for.

Re: Cassandra OOM on joining existing ring
What does your data and data model look like - partition size, rows per partition, number of columns per row, any large values/blobs in column values? You could run fine on an 8GB system, but only if your rows and partitions are reasonably small. Any large partitions could blow you away. -- Jack Krupansky On Fri, Jul 10, 2015 at 4:22 AM, Kunal Gangakhedkar kgangakhed...@gmail.com wrote: Attaching the stack dump captured from the last OOM.

One of the nodes (seed node) died with OOM - so, I am trying to add a replacement node with same configuration. The problem is this new node also keeps dying with OOM - I've restarted the cassandra service like 8-10 times hoping that it would finish the replication. But it didn't help. The one node that is still up is happily chugging along. All nodes have similar configuration - with libjna installed. Cassandra is installed from datastax's debian repo - pkg: dsc21 version 2.1.7. I started off with the default configuration - i.e. the default cassandra-env.sh - which calculates the heap size automatically (1/4 * RAM = 2GB) But, that didn't help.

Re: Cassandra OOM on joining existing ring
Thanks for quick reply.
1. I don't know what are the thresholds that I should look for. So, to save
this back-and-forth, I'm attaching the cfstats output for the keyspace.
There is one table - daily_challenges - which shows compacted partition max

partition max bytes as ~36M.
Can that be a problem?

Thanks, Sebastian.
Couple of questions (I'm really new to cassandra):
1. How do I interpret the output of 'nodetool cfstats' to figure out the
issues? Any documentation pointer on that would be helpful.
2. I'm primarily a python/c developer - so, totally clueless about JVM
environment. So, please bare with me as I would need a lot of hand-holding.
Should I just copy+paste the settings you gave and try to restart the
failing cassandra server?
Thanks,

I upgraded my instance from 8GB to a 14GB one. Allocated 8GB to jvm heap in cassandra-env.sh. And now, it crashes even faster with an OOM.. Earlier, with 4GB heap, I could go upto ~90% replication completion (as reported by nodetool netstats); now, with 8GB heap, I cannot even get there.

We use cassandra to primarily store segmentation data - with segment type as partition key. That is again divided into two separate column families; but they have similar structure. Columns per row can be fairly large - each segment type as the row key and associated user ids and timestamp as column value.

The one node that is still up is happily chugging along. All nodes have similar configuration - with libjna installed. Cassandra is installed from datastax's debian repo - pkg: dsc21 version 2.1.7.

#1
There is one table - daily_challenges - which shows compacted partition
max bytes as ~460M and another one - daily_guest_logins - which shows
compacted partition max bytes as ~36M.
460 is high, I like to keep my partitions under 100mb when possible. I've
seen worse though. The fix is to add something else (maybe month or week or
something) into your partition key:
PRIMARY KEY ((segment_type, something_else), date, user_id, sess_id)
#2 looks like your jam version is 3 per your env.sh so you're probably okay
to copy the env.sh over from the C* 3.0 link I shared once you uncomment
and tweak the MAX_HEAP. If there's something wrong your node won't come up.
tail your logs.

Thanks for quick reply.
1. I don't know what are the thresholds that I should look for. So, to
save this back-and-forth, I'm attaching the cfstats output for the keyspace.
There is one table - daily_challenges - which shows compacted partition
max bytes as ~460M and another one - daily_guest_logins - which shows
compacted partition max bytes as ~36M.
Can that be a problem?
Here is the CQL schema for the daily_challenges column family:
CREATE TABLE app_10001.daily_challenges (
segment_type text,
date timestamp,
user_id int,
sess_id text,
data text,
deleted boolean,
PRIMARY KEY (segment_type, date, user_id, sess_id)
) WITH CLUSTERING ORDER BY (date DESC, user_id ASC, sess_id ASC)
AND bloom_filter_fp_chance = 0.01
AND caching = '{keys:ALL, rows_per_partition:NONE}'
AND comment = ''
AND compaction = {'min_threshold': '4', 'class':
'org.apache.cassandra.db.compaction.SizeTieredCompactionStrategy',
'max_threshold': '32'}
AND compression = {'sstable_compression':
'org.apache.cassandra.io.compress.LZ4Compressor'}
AND dclocal_read_repair_chance = 0.1
AND default_time_to_live = 0
AND gc_grace_seconds = 864000

AND memtable_flush_period_in_ms = 0
AND min_index_interval = 128
AND read_repair_chance = 0.0
AND speculative_retry = '99.0PERCENTILE';
CREATE INDEX idx_deleted ON app_10001.daily_challenges (deleted);
2. I don't know - how do I check? As I mentioned, I just installed the
dsc21 update from datastax's debian repo (ver 2.1.7).
Really appreciate your help.
