             Summary: Quarantine nodes after receiving the gossip shutdown 
message
                 Key: CASSANDRA-8336
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-8336
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core
            Reporter: Brandon Williams
            Assignee: Brandon Williams
             Fix For: 2.0.12


In CASSANDRA-3936 we added a gossip shutdown announcement.  The problem here is 
that this isn't sufficient; you can still get TOEs and have to wait on the FD 
to figure things out.  This happens due to gossip propagation time and 
variance; if node X shuts down and sends the message to Y, but Z has a greater 
gossip version than Y for X and has not yet received the message, it can 
initiate gossip with Y and thus mark X alive again.  I propose quarantining to 
solve this, however I feel it should be a -D parameter you have to specify, so 
as not to destroy current dev and test practices, since this will mean a node 
that shuts down will not be able to restart until the quarantine expires.
