    Description

      cassandra.yaml really needs a config option for a snapshot directory. by default it should be a peer folder with saved_caches, commitlog and data.

      assuming the value of that setting is /some/path/snapshot_dir then snapshots would go into: /some/path/snapshot_dir/snapshot_name/keyspace_name/

      this makes automation, particularly around backups, much easier and gives more control to ops
