----------------------------------------

             Summary: 'nodetool status' reports nodes in undocumented '?' state
                 Key: CASSANDRA-8791
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-8791
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Stuart Bishop
            Priority: Minor


'nodetool status' self documents the node status with the statement 
'Status=Up/Down' which corresponds to the 'U' and 'D' statuses in the first 
column of the node listing.

There is also a very important '?' status that is not documented, which seems 
to appear when a node is bootstrapping.

Automation and deployment tools need to cope with nodes in this transition 
state, and the first step is to inform them about it in the documentation.
