Alexandre Viau created CASSANDRA-21595:
------------------------------------------
Summary: Documentation for reset_bootstrap_progress is unclear
Key: CASSANDRA-21595
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-21595
Project: Apache Cassandra
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Documentation
Reporter: Alexandre Viau
Assignee: Alexandre Viau
The only documenation available on `reset_bootstrap_progress` is the following:
> In order to cleanup bootstrap state and start fresh, you may set the JVM
> startup flag -Dcassandra.reset_bootstrap_progress=true.
This gives the impression that if I don't want to start fresh, I should not do
anything. However, this is false. If I want my node to resume bootstraping with
existing data, I need to set it to `false`, which is different than the default
of `unset`.
I think this is impossible to infer from existing documentation. Only reading
source code helped me understand.
