Hi,
I'm going to join multiple new nodes to already existed and running cluster. Each node should stream in >2TB of data, and it took a few days (with 500Mb streaming) to almost get finished. But it stuck on streaming-in from one final node, but i can not see any bottleneck on any side (source or destination node), the only problem is 400 pending compactions on joining node, which i disabled auto_compaction, but no improvement. 1. How can i safely stop streaming/joining the new node and make it UN, then run repair on the node? 2. On bootstrap a new node, multiple tables would be streamed-in simultaneously and i think that this would increase number of compactions in compare with a scenario that "the joining node first stream-in one table then switch to another one and etc". Am i right and this would decrease compactions? If so, is there a config or hack in cassandra to force that? Sent using https://www.zoho.com/mail/
