Hi Dojo,
I want to move my Cassandra DB from a local disk on the same server on which DataMiner is running to a Linux server. Therefore I'm following the steps described in https://community.dataminer.services/documentation/standalone-cassandra-backup-tool/
According to the log file the backup succeeded

problem is that I can't find the backup on my system. Where is it located?
Hi Jens,
According to the Dojo article (Standalone Cassandra Backup Tool), this tool will generate the snapshots in the following folder:
data_directory/keyspace_name/table_name-UUID/snapshots/
According to the log file attached, there should be a snapshot cloud available in:
data_directory/keyspace_name/table_name-UUID/snapshots/cloud
For a default installation, the folder should be:
C:\ProgramData\Cassandra\SLDMADB\table_name-UUID\snapshots\cloud
Hope it helps!
