Benedict commented on CASSANDRA-9749:
-------------------------------------

[~blambov]: as suggested by Sylvain on CASSANDRA-7125, it may be best to 
provide a command line override (that we can inform users of in the error 
message) for overriding the policy for replay only. So that your legitimate 
concern about a temporary override affecting production stability can avoided.

> There are a few places where the commit log recovery method either skips 
> sections or just returns when it encounters errors.
> Specifically if it can't read the header here: 
> https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/trunk/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/db/commitlog/CommitLogReplayer.java#L298
> Or if there are compressor problems here: 
> https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/trunk/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/db/commitlog/CommitLogReplayer.java#L314
>  and here: 
> https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/trunk/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/db/commitlog/CommitLogReplayer.java#L366
> Whether these are user-fixable or not, I think we should require more direct 
> user intervention (ie: fix what's wrong, or remove the bad file and restart) 
> since we're basically losing data.
