[SOLVED] Taking a snapshot of cassandra with a specific name on Linux server

I am trying to take a snapshot with a user defined name or a tag name of a keyspace.I am using the nodetool utility. It throws an error as below.

./nodetool -h localhost -p 7199 -t mysnap snapshot abcd nodetool: Found unexpected parameters: [-t, mysnap, snapshot, abcd] See 'nodetool help' or 'nodetool help '.

./nodetool snapshot ${KEYSPACE_NAME} : This works, but doesn't serve the purpose, because the name of the snapshot is default

Hi ansh007. Why have you marked this thread as "Solved"? Did you find a solution?

Hey hydrurga,

Yeah. I was trying the -t at wrong place.
./nodetool snapshot -t <mysnap> ${KEYSPACE_NAME} -> will work

Excellent. Thanks ansh007!
