Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-3706:
-------------------------------------------
bq. let me see if i can get CASSANDRA-4018 done today... would be nice to build
on that
I was thinking in terms of using a composite column to keep multiple versions
around, but re-thinking that, if people want multiple versions they should be
responsible for snapshot + backup themselves. So, never mind. :)

> Snapshot can backup user data, but it's also nice to be able to have
> known-good configurations saved as well in case of accidental snafus or even
> catastrophic loss of a cluster. If we check for changes to cassandra.yaml,
> cassandra-env.sh, and maybe log4j-server.properties on startup, we can back
> them up to a columnfamily that can then be handled by normal snapshot/backup
> procedures.
