APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • During backup operation cassandra container
    creates backup files inside /tmp folder for temporary purposes.
    After uploading to specific sftp/ftp/ebs location script does
    not cleanup backup files which are temporarily stored /tmp
    folder.
    

Local fix

  • Ø
    Deleting cassandra pod will clear the files under /tmp and
    allow the pod to start correctly
    

Problem summary

  • On every Cassandra backup operation ( can be trigerred by a cron
    job or on demand operation), backup files are not cleaned in the
    /tmp directory in each cassandra container. If backups are taken
    too frequently, /tmp directly can fill up and cassandra startup
    scripts which uses `sed` linux command will no longer work as
    `sed` command needs space in /tmp directory.
    
    This can result in downtime as cassandra servers do not start.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Fix targeted for release v2018.4.1.2
    

Temporary fix
