Description

We recently doubled size of our cluster.
After that,we ran the cleanup on the old machines in the cluster.
After that we loaded the data which triggered minor compaction which did not complete due to corrupt sstables
This was the case with those machines only on which we ran the cleanup.

As the cleanup is unavoidable after node addition, what is the way to avoid this problem?
Is this issue fixed in newer versions of Cassandra(As we are using cassandra-0.8.2)?

OR

Are there any steps / procedure that will avoid need of cleanup after node addition.
The same issue is reported here: CASSANDRA-3065
