             Summary: Expose bootstrap failure state via JMX
                 Key: CASSANDRA-18749
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-18749
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Observability/JMX
            Reporter: Jaydeepkumar Chovatia
            Assignee: Jaydeepkumar Chovatia


Similar to how we have exposed a node's decommissioning via JMX as part of 
CASSANDRA-18555.

This ticket will address the same when a new node joins (i.e., bootstrap). 

When a node is bootstrapped, an error is thrown back to the caller if any 
failure happens.

But Cassandra's bootstrap takes considerable time ranging from minutes to hours 
to days. There are various scenarios in that the caller may need to probe the 
status again:
 * The caller times out
 * It is not possible to keep the caller hanging for such a long time

And If the caller does not know what happened internally, then it cannot retry, 
etc., leading to other issues.

So, in this ticket, a new nodetool/JMX option will be exposed that can be 
invoked by the caller anytime, and it will return the correct status.
