Nodetool snapshot
Hey All,
I found recentmy that the nodetool snapshot golder is creating almost 120GB
of filea when my actual keyspace folder has 20GB only.
Do we need to change any paramater to avoid this?
Is this normal?
I have 3.11.4 version

yes you need to restore snapshot of the node’s own snapshot for every node

Thanks , i guess i have both.
So can we have either or?
If i keep auto_snapshot? Can i remove nodetool snapshot?
Woest case scenario if i wish to restore snapshot which one will be best
option?
Also if we restore snapshot do we need to have snapshot on all nodes?

You probably have auto_snapshot enabled, which takes snapshots when you do
certain things. You can disable that if you dont need it, but it protects
you against things like accidentally dropping / truncating a table.
You may also be doing snapshots manually - if you do this, you can
'nodetool clearsnapshot' to free up space.
