Jonathan Ellis reassigned CASSANDRA-4047:
-----------------------------------------
Assignee: Brandon Williams
I guess we could add a hint type field to the hints table (easier
post-CASSANDRA-4018) to say whether the hint is a "classic" mutation hint, or a
snapshotted sstable.

>
> With the introduction of the BulkOutputFormat, there may be cases where
> someone would like to tolerate node failures and have the job complete, but
> afterwards since we streamed they have to repair or rely on read repair. We
> don't currently have any way of hinting streams, but a node could take a
> snapshot before acknowledging the stream session, then remember to send the
> files in the snapshot to the unavailable nodes when they come back up. This
> isn't quite ideal since of course the node may have compacted these files,
> however it's much simpler than any sort of key tracking at this scale.
