nodetools, available commands

[Douglas Santos <do...@gmail.com>]

Hi all,
We are writing an article for a magazine and would like to write about
monitoring, more precisely on the nodetools, but did not find many things
about the tool.
I want to help or a brief explanation about nodetools commands ...

Available commands: ring, info, cleanup, compact, cfstats, snapshot
[snapshotname], clearsnapshot, tpstats, flush, drain, repair,
decommission, move, loadbalance, removetoken

tks,
Douglas Paulino dos Santos

Most of these commands access the JMX interface.

http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/JmxInterface

The Jmx Interface page is not currently 100% complete or current, but 
that page plus some basic reading of the nodetool code and examination 
of the Jmx Interface via jconsole should answer most of your questions 
about nodetool.
