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

             Summary: Consider deprecating the property file snitch
                 Key: CASSANDRA-11509
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-11509
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Core
            Reporter: Brandon Williams


It is at least clear to me that GPFS is one of the most dominate snitches in 
installations I see, with there being no good reason to continue using PFS any 
longer.  Since GPFS has a direct migration path from PFS, we can deprecate it 
in a major release and remove it (and the backward compatibility cruft in GPFS) 
in a later one.  This will prevent the sort of problem that caused me to file 
CASSANDRA-11508.

We could also just remove the migration path, if someone really, really wants 
to use PFS for the rest of time.
