Long running nodetool repair

2013-02-19 Thread Haithem Jarraya
Hi, I am new to Cassandra and I am not sure if this is the normal behavior but nodetool repair runs for too long even for small dataset per node. As I am writing I started a nodetool repair last night at 18:41 and now it's 9:18 and it's still running, the size of my data is only ~500mb per node.

Testing compaction strategies on a single production server?

2013-02-19 Thread Henrik Schröder
Hey, Version 1.1 of Cassandra introduced live traffic sampling, which allows you to measure the performance of a node without it really joining the cluster: http://www.datastax.com/dev/blog/whats-new-in-cassandra-1-1-live-traffic-sampling That page mentions that you can change the compaction

Just turn off dynamic snitch on survey node and make read requests from it directly with CL.ONE, watch histograms, compare. Regarding switching compaction strategy there're a lot of info already. Best regards / Pagarbiai Viktor Jevdokimov Senior Developer Email:

The 40 TB use case you heard about is probably one 40TB mysql machine that someone migrated to mongo so it would be web scale Cassandra is NOT good with drives that big, get a blade center or a high density chassis. On Mon, Feb 18, 2013 at 8:00 PM, Hiller, Dean dean.hil...@nrel.gov wrote: I

This is very normal (unfortunately). Are you doing a repair –pr or a straight up repair? Does nodetool netstats show anything? I frequently see repair hang in 1.2.1, and I haven't been able to figure out why yet though. Feel free to take a stack dump with jstack on the node doing the repair

Well, that answer didn't really help. I know how to make a survey node, and I know how to simulate reads to it, it's just that that's a lot of work, and I wouldn't be sure that the simulated load is the same as the production load. We gather a lot of metrics from our production servers, so we

It should not take that long. For my 200G node, it takes about an hour to calculate the Merkle tree and then data streaming. By the way, how do you know the repair is not done? If you run nodetool tpstats, it should give you the AntiEntropy session info, active/pending/completed etc. While
