Enable full query logging via nodetool
In this step, you will enable full query logging via nodetool.
We've already started a single node Cassandra cluster for you in the background. When the command prompt appears in the terminal, the node is initialized and ready to go.
✅ First, let's create a directory to store our full query log files:
mkdir /tmp/fqllogs
✅ Now you can connect to the node using nodetool and enable full query logging, using the directory we just created as the path:
nodetool enablefullquerylog --path /tmp/fqllogs
✅ To get a listing of the other options available on this command, execute the following:
nodetool help enablefullquerylog
In this step, you enabled full query logging dynamically on a running Cassandra node using nodetool and learned about the available options on the enablefullquerylog command.
