I’m running a 4-node Cassandra cluster. Some of our nodes have some very large snapshots, and we’re running out of disk space. I need to delete the snapshots, but I can’t find any documentation which states how to do this properly. Do I just shut the node down and delete the files in the snapshots directory? Is there some kind of command? Thanks.

OK I figured this one out (with the help of IRC). It’s
nodetool -h localhost clearsnapshot.
