Description

I am running incremental parallel repair using the following command:

nodetool --host my_hostname repair --incremental --in-local-dc --parallel

and get the following error:

Repair failed with error Already repairing SSTableReader(path='/path/to/keyspace/column_family/keyspace-column_family--Data.db'), can not continue.

I have 3 data centers, each with 4 nodes. Neither incremental or full repair is running on any of my other nodes.
