Description
faced very strange behaviour when changing compression_parameters of exisiting CF. After changing the compaction strategy, compression_strategy returning back to the "SnappyCompressor".
Using cassandra version 1.1.5.
[cqlsh 2.2.0 | Cassandra 1.1.5 | CQL spec 2.0.0 | Thrift protocol 19.32.0]
I have one column family with following paramters:
cqlsh > describe columnfamily auditlog_01;
CREATE TABLE auditlog_01 (
lid text PRIMARY KEY,
dscn text,
asid text,
soapa text
) WITH
comment='' AND
comparator=text AND
read_repair_chance=0.100000 AND
gc_grace_seconds=864000 AND
default_validation=text AND
min_compaction_threshold=4 AND
max_compaction_threshold=32 AND
replicate_on_write='true' AND
compaction_strategy_class='SizeTieredCompactionStrategy' AND
compaction_strategy_options:sstable_size_in_mb='5' AND
compression_parameters:sstable_compression='SnappyCompressor';
Changing compression strategy to 'DeflateCompressor
cqlsh> ALTER TABLE auditlog_01 WITH compression_parameters:sstabl
e_compression = 'DeflateCompressor' AND compression_parameters:chunk_length_kb =
64;
cqlsh> describe columnfamily auditlog_01;
CREATE TABLE auditlog_01 (
lid text PRIMARY KEY,
dscn text,
asid text,
soapa text
) WITH
comment='' AND
comparator=text AND
read_repair_chance=0.100000 AND
gc_grace_seconds=864000 AND
default_validation=text AND
min_compaction_threshold=4 AND
max_compaction_threshold=32 AND
replicate_on_write='true' AND
compaction_strategy_class='SizeTieredCompactionStrategy' AND
compaction_strategy_options:sstable_size_in_mb='5' AND
compression_parameters:chunk_length_kb='64' AND
compression_parameters:sstable_compression='DeflateCompressor';
it's sucessfuly changed the compression strategy to 'DeflateCompressor, after that when i am trying to change the compaction strategy, compression strategy returing back to "SnappyCompressor".
cqlsh> alter table auditlog_01 with compaction_strategy_class='Le
veledCompactionStrategy' AND compaction_strategy_options:sstable_size_in_mb=5;
cqlsh> describe columnfamily auditlog_01;
