Ekaterina Dimitrova updated CASSANDRA-17379:
--------------------------------------------
Change Category: Operability
Complexity: Low Hanging Fruit
Component/s: Local/Config
Priority: Low (was: Normal)
Status: Open (was: Triage Needed)
> Emit a warning when the same parameter exists more than once in
> cassandra.yaml
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CASSANDRA-17379
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-17379
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Local/Config
> Reporter: Ekaterina Dimitrova
> Priority: Low
>
> The way that SnakeYAML works, if someone has added the same parameter more
> than once - the last occurrence will be the one that will take precedence.
> Noew after CASSANDRA-15234 we can even add the parameter with the old name
> and with the new name and the occurrences will replace each other. Again,
> whatever is last in cassandra.yaml will take precedence. Example:
> If you add the following in cassandra.yaml
>
> {code:java}
> hinted_handoff_enabled: true
> enabled_hinted_handolff: false
> {code}
>
> you will get loaded in Config -
> hinted_handoff_enabled: false //there is backward compatibility from the old
> name to load into the new one
> Currently Cassandra prints in the logs what config was loaded but it is good
> also to detect the case mentioned and emit a warning for the user so they can
> verify that the value they wanted was loaded in config.
> To do that you might want to look at the PropertiesChecker and the way we
> emit other warnings in
> [check()|https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/trunk/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/config/YamlConfigurationLoader.java#L376]
> in YamlConfigurationLoader.
