Set the consistency level to use during cassandra-stress. Options are ONE, QUORUM, LOCAL_QUORUM, EACH_QUORUM, ALL, and ANY. Default is LOCAL_ONE.

clustering=DIST(?)

Distribution clustering runs of operations of the same kind.

duration=?

Specify the time to run, in seconds, minutes or hours.

err<?

Specify a standard error of the mean; when this value is reached, cassandra-stress will end. Default is 0.02.

n>?

Specify a minimum number of iterations to run before accepting uncertainly convergence.

n<?

Specify a maximum number of iterations to run before accepting uncertainly convergence.

n=?

Specify the number of operations to run.

no-warmup

Do not warmup the process, do a cold start.

ops(?)

Specify what operations to run and the number of each. (only with the user option)

profile=?

Designate the YAML file to use with cassandra-stress. (only with the user option)

truncate=?

Truncate the table created during cassandra-stress. Options are never, once, or always. Default is never.

Command arguments

-col

Column details, such as size and count distribution, data generator, names, and comparator.

Usage:

-col names=? [slice] [super=?] [comparator=?] [timestamp=?] [size=DIST(?)]
 or
-col [n=DIST(?)] [slice] [super=?] [comparator=?] [timestamp=?] [size=DIST(?)]
-errors

How to handle errors when encountered during stress testing.

Usage:

-errors [retries=N] [ignore] [skip-read-validation]
  • retries=<N> Number of times to try each operation before failing.

  • ignore Do not fail on errors.

  • skip-read-validation Skip read validation and message output.

-graph

Graph results of cassandra-stress tests. Multiple tests can be graphed together.

Usage:

-graph file=? [revision=?] [title=?] [op=?]
-insert

Insert specific options relating to various methods for batching and splitting partition updates.

Usage:

-insert [revisit=DIST(?)] [visits=DIST(?)] partitions=DIST(?) [batchtype=?] select-ratio=DIST(?) row-population-ratio=DIST(?)
-log

Where to log progress and the interval to use.

Usage:

-log [level=?] [no-summary] [file=?] [hdrfile=?] [interval=?] [no-settings] [no-progress] [show-queries] [query-log-file=?]
-mode

Thrift or CQL with options.

Usage:

-mode thrift [smart] [user=?] [password=?]
  or
-mode native [unprepared] cql3 [compression=?] [port=?] [user=?] [password=?] [auth-provider=?] [maxPending=?] [connectionsPerHost=?] [protocolVersion=?]
  or
-mode simplenative [prepared] cql3 [port=?]
-node

Nodes to connect to.

Usage:

-node [datacenter=?] [whitelist] [file=?] []
-pop

Population distribution and intra-partition visit order.

Usage:

-pop seq=? [no-wrap] [read-lookback=DIST(?)] [contents=?]
  or
-pop [dist=DIST(?)] [contents=?]
-port

Specify port for connecting Cassandra nodes. Port can be specified for Cassandra native protocol, Thrift protocol or a JMX port for retrieving statistics.

Usage:

-port [native=?] [thrift=?] [jmx=?]
-rate

Set the rate using the following options:

-rate threads=<N> [throttle=<N>] [fixed=<N>]

where

  • threads=<N> number of clients to run concurrently.

  • throttle=<N> throttle operations per second across all clients to a maximum rate (or less) with no implied schedule. Default is 0.

  • fixed=<N> expect fixed rate of operations per second across all clients with implied schedule. Default is 0.

OR

-rate [threads>=<N>] [threads<=<N>] [auto]

Where

  • threads>=<N> run at least this many clients concurrently. Default is 4.

  • threads⇐<N> run at most this many clients concurrently. Default is 1000.

  • auto stop increasing threads once throughput saturates.

-schema

Replication settings, compression, compaction, and so on.

Usage:

-schema [replication(?)] [keyspace=?] [compaction(?)] [compression=?]
-sendto

Specify a server to send the stress command to.

Usage:

-sendto <host>
-tokenrange

Token range settings.

Usage:
