The schema is
CREATE TABLE system.sstables (
location text,
generation bigint,
format text,
status text,
uuid uuid,
version text,
PRIMARY KEY (location, generation)
)
A sample entry looks like:
location | generation | format | status | uuid | version
---------------------------------------------------------------------+------------+--------+--------+--------------------------------------+---------
/data/object_storage_ks/test_table-d096a1e0ad3811ed85b539b6b0998182 | 2 | big | sealed | d0a743b0-ad38-11ed-85b5-39b6b0998182 | me
The uuid field points to the "folder" on the storage where the sstable
components are. Like this:
s3
`- test_bucket
`- f7548f00-a64d-11ed-865a-0c1fbc116bb3
`- Data.db
- Index.db
- Filter.db
- ...
It's not very nice that the whole /var/lib/... path is in fact used as
location, it needs the PR #12707 to fix this place.
Also, the "status" part is not yet fully functional, it only supports
three options:
- creating -- the same as TemporaryTOC file exists on disk
- sealed -- default state
- deleting -- the analogy for the deletion log on disk
The latter needs support from the distributed_loader, which's not yet
there. In fact, distributes_loader also needs to be patched to actualy
select entries from this table on load. Also it needs the mentioned
PR #12707 to support staging and quarantine sstables.

And bump the schema version offset since the new schema
should be distinguishable from the previous one.
