Issue

  • Starting Metrics backup after work on the cluster and I get an error about storage:

  • Updating my cluster and metrics won't start back up
  • Events indicate cassandra can't mount the volume
  • Cassandra failing with error about permissions:
ERROR 20:01:35 Has no permission to create directory /cassandra_data/data
