Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-195:
------------------------------------------

How does the new node (node Z) know that there are no nodes that were down at 
the time Z was brought up, but which need to send it data?

(Is this addressed at all in the existing bootstrap code?  I think what will 
happen is that a node D that is down at the time of bootstrap will never send 
the data over.)

>
> When you add a node to an existing cluster and the map gets updated, the new 
> node may respond to read requests by saying it doesn't have any of the data 
> until it gets the data from the node(s) the previously owned this range (the 
> load-balancing code, when working properly can take care of this). While this 
> behaviour is compatible with eventual consistency, it would be much 
> friendlier for the new node not to "surface" in the EndPoint maps for reads 
> until it has transferred the data over from the old nodes.
