---------------------------------------------

             Summary: NullPointerException in CompactionInfo.getId(CompactionInfo.java:65)
                 Key: CASSANDRA-12462
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-12462
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Compaction
            Reporter: Jonathan DePrizio


Note: The same trace is cited in the last comment of https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-11961

I've noticed that some of my nodes in my 2.1 cluster have fallen way behind on compactions, and have huge numbers (thousands) of uncompacted, tiny SSTables (~30MB or so).

In diagnosing the issue, I've found that "nodetool compactionstats" returns the exception below.  Restarting cassandra on the node here causes the pending tasks count to jump to ~2000.  Compactions run properly for about an hour, until this exception occurs again.  Once it occurs, I see the pending tasks value rapidly drop towards zero, but without any compactions actually running (the logs show no compactions finishing).  It would seem that this is causing compactions to fail on this node, which is leading to it running out of space, etc.
