Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-8498: ------------------------------------------- What does failing buy us, other than making it really obvious that there's a problem? I'd prefer to log an error and skip the records involved but otherwise start up normally. > Replaying commit log records that are older than gc_grace is dangerous > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-8498 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-8498 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Core > Reporter: Benedict > > If we replay commit log records that are older than gc_grace we could > introduce data corruption to the cluster. We should either (1) fail and > suggest a repair, or (2) log an exception. I prefer (1). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
