Hi Folks,
I am trying to find out total time taken for compaction for a table on each node. Nodetool compaction history doesn't give exact time reference. Is there any way to look into. I have tried nodetool compaction history and opscenter. Any other suggestion will be appreciated.
Best Regards
Ritu
Compactions don't run for the whole table -- each compaction thread/task runs over a set of candidate SSTable files.
If you look at the logs, you will see entries for CompactionExecutor threads. It will specify the SSTables being compacted together and you can work out how long it took for the compaction thread to complete.
You cannot however determine the total for the whole table -- There is no such metric.
Compactions run as part of the normal operation of Cassandra nodes -- compaction tasks continually run whenever compactions are triggered by the compaction strategy. Cheers!
