Instaclustr SSTable tools

Maven Badge Circle CI

https://www.instaclustr.com/update-released-instaclustr-sstable-analysis-tools-apache-cassandra/ https://www.instaclustr.com/instaclustr-open-sources-cassandra-sstable-analysis-tools/

Compile

$ git clone git@github.com:instaclustr/cassandra-sstable-tools.git
$ cd cassandra-sstable-tools
# Select the correct branch for major version (default is cassandra-4.1)
$ git checkout cassandra-4.1
$ mvn clean install

Install

Copy ic-sstable-tools.jar to Cassandra JAR folder, eg. /usr/share/cassandra/lib

Copy the bin/ic-sstable-tools script into your $PATH

We also offer RPM and DEB packages. In case you install them, you do not need to execute steps above, obviously.

Documentation

$ ./bin/ic-sstable-tools 
Missing required sub-command.
Usage: <main class> [-hV] [COMMAND]
  -h, --help      Show this help message and exit.
  -V, --version   Print version information and exit.
Commands:
  cfstats   Detailed statistics about cells in a column family
  pstats    Partition size statistics for a column family
  purge     Statistics about reclaimable data for a column family
  sstables  Print out metadata for sstables that belong to a column family

-b Batch mode. Uses progress indicator that is friendly for running in batch jobs.
-n Number of partitions to display
-t Snapshot to analyse. Snapshot is created if none is specified.
