[jira] [Created] (CASSANDRA-17711) Create a new node tool supporting force compaction

             Summary: Create a new node tool supporting force compaction
                 Key: CASSANDRA-17711
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-17711
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Tool/nodetool
            Reporter: Cheng Wang
            Assignee: Cheng Wang


Need to create new tool called {*}nodetool forcecompact{*}. The syntax of the command is
*nodetool forcecompact keyspace table <list of partition keys ignoring the gc_grace_seconds>.*

One of the use cases of the tool is to handle the bad partitions which may contain too many tombstones. The tool will compact all the sstables containing the partition keys. In addition, by ignoring the {*}gc_grace_seconds{*}, it will help purge the tombstones faster.
