Donald Smith updated CASSANDRA-8591:
------------------------------------
    Description: 
Often bootstrapping fails due to errors like "unable to find sufficient sources 
for streaming range". But cassandra is supposed to be fault tolerant, and it's 
supposed to have tunable consistency.

If it can't find some sources, it should allow bootstrapping to continue, under 
control by parameters (up to 100 failures, for example), and should print out a 
report about what ranges were missing.  For many apps, it's far better to 
bootstrap what's available then to fail flat.
