10 years ago The problem is most likely that the systems tmp directory is on a different partition than the cassandra data directory.
The workaround I used was to set the tmp directory to be on the same partition within the context of the cassback run.
For example:
export TMPDIR=/data/cassback/tmp
The python function will honor that setting.
I do not recommend setting that as a global so create a small wrapper script that will set it as needed on each run.
OSError: [Errno 18] Invalid cross-device link
Installed cassback according to the instructions. When I am running the backup command -
cassback --endpoint s3 --aws-key xx --aws-secret xx --bucket-name cassandra-backup backup --include-system --cassandra_data_dir=/mnt/cassandra/data/
I get the following error. Let me know if this can be fixed.
