Maxim Podkolzine created CASSANDRA-8800: -------------------------------------------
Summary: Cassandra fails to start with OOM after disk space problem occurred Key: CASSANDRA-8800 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-8800 Project: Cassandra Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Maxim Podkolzine It one point the Cassandra failed with org.apache.cassandra.io.FSWriteError: java.io.IOException: No space left on device Which seems pretty normal situation. But after the disk space was increased, Cassandra refused to start up again. The memory snapshot shows a big ArrayList of org.apache.cassandra.io.sstable.SSTableScanner is allocated, holding around 2.8Gb. It looks like the DB is corrupted, but we're not entirely sure. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
