Brandon Williams commented on CASSANDRA-10745:
----------------------------------------------
GPFS will already fall back to the property file if the node-specific dc-rack
file isn't there, so you could just keep packaging it that way and use GPFS
instead of PFS.
> Deprecate PropertyFileSnitch
> ----------------------------
>
> Key: CASSANDRA-10745
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-10745
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Coordination, Distributed Metadata
> Reporter: Paulo Motta
> Priority: Minor
>
> Opening this ticket to discuss deprecating PropertyFileSnitch, since it's
> error-prone and more snitch code to maintain (See CASSANDRA-10243). Migration
> from existing cluster with PropertyFileSnitch to GossipingPropertyFileSnitch
> is straightforward.
> Is there any useful use case that can be achieved only with
> PropertyFileSnitch?
> If not objections, we would add deprecation warnings in 2.2.x, 3.0.x, 3.2 and
> deprecate in 3.4 or 3.6.
