Expose setting of phi in the FailureDetector
--------------------------------------------
Key: CASSANDRA-1053
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-1053
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 0.6
Reporter: Brandon Williams
Priority: Trivial
I've seen some users, always on cloud platforms, say that they have problems
with hosts flapping in the FD. GC is not the cause. I know of at least one
production deployment where they are already hacking phi to 10 to get around
the flapping problems.
This is a dangerous thing to expose, however, since giving meaning to the
difference of 8 and 10 here is hard to quantify to someone unfamiliar with the
inner workings. Perhaps we can allow setting it in the config, but not specify
a default and leave it commented out with a big fat warning.
