Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/bin/cassandra-snapshotter", line 11, in sys.exit(main()) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/cassandra_snapshotter/main.py", line 284, in main restore_backup(args) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/cassandra_snapshotter/main.py", line 110, in restore_backup args.s3_bucket_name TypeError: init() takes exactly 6 arguments (5 given)

this is what i get when i execute sudo cassandra-snapshotter --s3-bucket-name=bucket --s3-base-path=cassandra --aws-access-key-id=XXXX --aws-secret-access-key=XXXX restore --keyspace oneg --target-hosts 172.31.54.113

EXTRA INFO: i install using pip install cassandra_snapshotter

you need to specify the task you want to execute (eg. backup)

i need to restore it. And i gave restore. even list is working fine for me.

tbarbugli commented 7 years ago

sorry I missed that, restore is not really supported by the tool. There is some code and support for backup restoration but some fiddling with the code is required.

siddhu07 commented 7 years ago

if cassandra snapshotter does not support, is there any other way to restore the data?. and can you update me, once the code is done?

runesl commented 7 years ago

"restore is not really supported by the tool" Why use this tool then? Doesn't it make a lot more sense to do a FS-level snapshot? (asuming your data cassandra directory is on a separate volume, which it should be for any database)

im getting the same issue with the restore command, i understand this is still a work in progress, any idea of when this command cant at least grab the files from s3, so we can manually restore from that point?
