Nodetool¶

Nodetool generic options¶

• -p <port> or --port <port> - The port of the REST API of the ScyllaDB node.

• -- - Separates command-line options from the list of argument(useful when an argument might be mistaken for a command-line option).

Supported Nodetool operations¶

Operations that are not listed below are currently not available.

• backup - Copy SSTables from a specified keyspace’s snapshot to a designated bucket in object storage.

• cfhistograms - Provides statistics about a table, including number of SSTables, read/write latency, partition size and column count.

• cfstats - Provides in-depth diagnostics regard table.
