title: Cassandra sequential repair does not repair all nodes on one run?
body: <p>Day before yesterday, I had issued a full sequential repair on one of my nodes in a 5 node Cassandra cluster for a single table using the below command.</p>
  
  <pre><code>nodetool repair -full -seq -tr &lt;keyspace&gt; &lt;table&gt; &gt; &lt;logfile&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Now the node on which the command was issued was repaired properly as can be infered from the below command</p>
  
  <pre><code>nodetool cfstats -H &lt;keyspace.columnFamily&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The same, however, cannot be said about other nodes as for them I get a random value of repair %, significantly lesser. </p>
  
  <p>I am not sure what is happening over here, looks like the only node that was repaired for the keyspace and column family was the node on which the repair command was issued. Any guesses on what might be going on here, or how to properly investigate into the issue</p>
  
  <p>Thanks !</p>
