`nodetool stop`

Where is the cassandra-env.sh file?

The location of the cassandra-env.sh file depends on the type of installation:

Installation Type Location

Installation Type	Location
Package installations + Installer-Services installations	`/etc/dse/cassandra/cassandra-env.sh`
Tarball installations + Installer-No Services installations	`<installation_location>/resources/cassandra/conf/cassandra-env.sh`

Package installations + Installer-Services installations

/etc/dse/cassandra/cassandra-env.sh

Tarball installations + Installer-No Services installations

<installation_location>/resources/cassandra/conf/cassandra-env.sh

Stops the compaction process.

Synopsis

nodetool <options> stop -- <compaction_type>

Tarball and Installer No-Services path:

<installation_location>/resources/cassandra/bin

Options
Short	Long	Description
`-h`	`--host`	Hostname or IP address.
`-p`	`--port`	Port number.
`-pwf`	`--password-file`	Password file path.
`-pw`	`--password`	Password.
`-u`	`--username`	Remote JMX agent username.
compaction type	Supported types are: `COMPACTION` `VALIDATION` `CLEANUP` `SCRUB` `UPGRADE_SSTABLES` `VERIFY` `INDEX_BUILD` `TOMBSTONE_COMPACTION` `ANTICOMPACTION` `VIEW_BUILD` `INDEX_SUMMARY` `RELOCATE` `GARBAGE_COLLECT`
`--`	Separates an option from an argument that could be mistaken for an option.

For tarball installations, execute the command from the <installation_location>/bin directory.
If a username and password for RMI authentication are set explicitly in the cassandra-env.sh file for the host, then you must specify credentials.
nodetool stop operates on a single node in the cluster if -h is not used to identify one or more other nodes. If the node from which you issue the command is the intended target, you do not need the -h option to identify the target; otherwise, for remote invocation, identify the target node, or nodes, using -h.
Valid compaction types: COMPACTION, VALIDATION, CLEANUP, SCRUB, INDEX_BUILD

Stops all compaction operations from continuing to run. This command is typically used to stop a compaction that has a negative impact on the performance of a node. After the compaction stops, the remaining operations in the queue are continued. Eventually, the compaction is restarted.

In DataStax Enterprise 5.0 and later, a single compaction operation can be stopped with the -id option. Run nodetool compactionstats to find the compaction ID.
