Truncating data from a table
Truncate data from a table from within the Data workspace in OpsCenter Monitoring. If OpsCenter authentication is enabled, the user role must have the Truncate permission.
Truncate data from a table from within the Data workspace in OpsCenter Monitoring. A message warns you that truncated data is lost from OpsCenter. If a snapshot of the table does not already exist, a snapshot is created on your behalf. That snapshot resides in a snapshot directory within its table directory. If you need to restore the table data at some point in the future, you must do so manually by running sstableloader on the SSTables in the snapshot. The snapshot cannot be restored from the Backup Service. See Restoring from a snapshot in the DataStax Cassandra documentation.
To find out more about the ramifications of truncating data, and an alternative method of doing so manually, see TRUNCATE.
