sstablepartitions
Identifies large partitions of SSTables.
Identifies large partitions of SSTables and generate output in JSON format. The output includes the partition size, row count, cell count, and tombstone count.
Synopsis
sstablepartitions [-b] [-c cell_count_threshold] [-k partition_keys] [-m] [-o tombstone_count_threshold] [-r] [-t partition_count_threshold] [-u] [-x partition_keys|-y] sstable_name|sstable_directory
| Syntax conventions | Description |
|---|---|
| UPPERCASE | Literal keyword. |
| Lowercase | Not literal. |
Italics |
Variable value. Replace with a valid option or user-defined value. |
[ ] |
Optional. Square brackets ( [ ] ) surround optional command
arguments. Do not type the square brackets. |
( ) |
Group. Parentheses ( ( ) ) identify a group to choose from. Do
not type the parentheses. |
| |
Or. A vertical bar ( | ) separates alternative elements. Type
any one of the elements. Do not type the vertical bar. |
... |
Repeatable. An ellipsis ( ... ) indicates that you can repeat
the syntax element as often as required. |
'Literal string' |
Single quotation ( ' ) marks must surround literal strings in
CQL statements. Use single quotation marks to preserve upper case. |
{ key:value } |
Map collection. Braces ( { } ) enclose map collections or key
value pairs. A colon separates the key and the value. |
<datatype1,datatype2> |
Set, list, map, or tuple. Angle brackets ( < > ) enclose
data types in a set, list, map, or tuple. Separate the data types with a comma.
|
cql_statement; |
End CQL statement. A semicolon ( ; ) terminates all CQL
statements. |
[ -- ] |
Separate the command line options from the command arguments with two hyphens (
-- ). This syntax is useful when arguments might be mistaken for
command line options. |
' <schema> ... </schema>
' |
Search CQL only: Single quotation marks ( ' ) surround an
entire XML schema declaration. |
@xml_entity='xml_entity_type' |
Search CQL only: Identify the entity and literal value to overwrite the XML element in the schema and solrconfig files. |
Identifies large partitions of the specified SSTable or directory and outputs the partition
size, row count, cell count, and tombstone count, where:
- sstable_name
- The name of the SSTable file. Specify sstable_name or sstable_directory.
- sstable_directory
- The data directory.
- -b,--backups
- Include backups in the data directories (recursive scans).
- -c cell_count_threshold,--min-cells cell_count_threshold
- Partition cell count threshold. When this threshold for cell count is exceeded, identify as a large partition.
- -k partition_keys,--key partition_keys
- Include partition keys.
- -m,--csv
- Instead of JSON formatted output, produce CSV machine-readable output.
- -o tombstone_count_threshold,--min-tombstones tombstone_count_threshold
- Partition tombstone count threshold.
- -r,--recursive
- Scan for SSTables recursively.
- -s,--snapshots
- Include snapshots present in data directories (recursive scans).
- -t partition_count_threshold,--min-size partition_count_threshold
- Partition size threshold.
- -u,--current-timestamp
- Include timestamp in output. Timestamp is the number seconds since epoch, unit time for TTL expired calculation.
- -x partition_keys,--exclude-key partition_keys
- Exclude partition key or keys from partition detailed row/cell/tombstone information. Does not apply if -y option is given.
- -y,--partitions-only
- Provide brief partition information only. Exclude per-partition detailed row/cell/tombstone information from process and output.
