Jason Brown created CASSANDRA-5128: -------------------------------------- Summary: Stream hints on decommission Key: CASSANDRA-5128 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-5128 Project: Cassandra Issue Type: Improvement Components: Core Affects Versions: 1.2.1 Reporter: Jason Brown Assignee: Jason Brown
Looks like decommissioning a node (nodetool decommission) will stream all the non-system table data out to it's appropriate peers (StorageService.unbootstrap()), but hints will disappear with the node. Let's send those hints to another peer (preferably in the same rack, and hopefully at least the same datacenter) them to be replayed. The use case here is auto-scaling vnode clusters in ec2. When auto-scaling down, I'd want to call decommission on the node to leave the ring (and be terminated), and still have all of it's artifacts (data and hints) survive. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
