> Key: CASSANDRA-6696
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6696
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Core
> Reporter: sankalp kohli
> Assignee: Marcus Eriksson
> Labels: compaction, correctness, dense-storage,
> jbod-aware-compaction, performance
> Fix For: 3.x
>
>
> In JBOD, when someone gets a bad drive, the bad drive is replaced with a new
> empty one and repair is run.
> This can cause deleted data to come back in some cases. Also this is true for
> corrupt stables in which we delete the corrupt stable and run repair.
> Here is an example:
> Say we have 3 nodes A,B and C and RF=3 and GC grace=10days.
> row=sankalp col=sankalp is written 20 days back and successfully went to all
> three nodes.
> Then a delete/tombstone was written successfully for the same row column 15
> days back.
> Since this tombstone is more than gc grace, it got compacted in Nodes A and B
> since it got compacted with the actual data. So there is no trace of this row
> column in node A and B.
> Now in node C, say the original data is in drive1 and tombstone is in drive2.
> Compaction has not yet reclaimed the data and tombstone.
> Drive2 becomes corrupt and was replaced with new empty drive.
> Due to the replacement, the tombstone in now gone and row=sankalp col=sankalp
> has come back to life.
> Now after replacing the drive we run repair. This data will be propagated to
> all nodes.
> Note: This is still a problem even if we run repair every gc grace.
