Sandeep Tata commented on CASSANDRA-195:
----------------------------------------

I' suppose we could add support for bootstrap through MBean, but eventually, 
I'm guessing "bootstrap mode" will be the default way for a node to join the 
cluster. For nodes that have data and are coming back, we'll need a recovery 
version of bootstrap that perhaps uses the Merkle trees.

> 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.
