nodetool compactionhistory

Prints the history of compaction.

Synopsis

nodetool [<connection_options>] compactionhistory
[-F (json | yaml)]
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.

Definition

The short- and long-form options are comma-separated.

Connection options

-h, --host hostname

The hostname or IP address of a remote node or nodes. When omitted, the default is the local machine.

-p, --port jmx_port

The JMX port number.

-pw, --password jmxpassword

The JMX password for authenticating with secure JMX. If a password is not provided, you are prompted to enter one.

-pwf, --password-file jmx_password_filepath

The filepath to the file that stores JMX authentication credentials.

-u, --username jmx_username

The username for authenticating with secure JMX.

Command arguments

-F, --format json | yaml

The format for the output. The default is plain text. The following wait latencies (in ms) are included in the following order: 50%, 75%, 95%, 98%, 99%, Min, and Max.

Examples

To view the compaction history

nodetool compactionhistory

The output of compaction history is seven columns wide. The first three columns show the id, keyspace name, and table name of the compacted SSTable.

The four columns to the right of the table name show the timestamp, size of the SSTable before and after compaction, and the number of partitions merged. The notation means {tables:rows}. For example: {1:3, 3:1} means 3 rows were taken from one SSTable (1:3) and 1 row taken from 3 SSTables (3:1) to make the one SSTable in that compaction operation.
