Nodetool clearsnapshot doesn't support Column Families

[Anubhav Kale <An...@microsoft.com>]

Hello,

I noticed that clearsnapshot doesn't support removing snapshots on a per CF, like how snapshots lets you take it per CF.

http://docs.datastax.com/en/cassandra/2.1/cassandra/tools/toolsClearSnapShot.html

I couldn't find a JIRA to address this. Is this intentional ? If so, I am curious to understand the rationale.

In absence of this, I would just rm -rf the folder to suit my requirements. Are there any bad-effects of doing so ?

Thanks !

Hi,

Here's Cassandra's JIRA: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA

As for your question: Yes, you can just rm -r a snapshot folder...
nothing bad will happen, except the deletion of that snapshot, obviously :-)

Regards
