David Alves commented on CASSANDRA-3564:
----------------------------------------
bq. Sure, but this is where is gets a little more complicated, since after
receiving the error the init script needs to check that the pid is really gone,
and if not get more forceful.
hum... handn't thought about that. you're right. any script/code comes to mind
that has similar functionality? (for inspiration :))
> flush before shutdown so restart is faster

> Cassandra handles flush in its shutdown hook for durable_writes=false CFs
> (otherwise we're *guaranteed* to lose data) but leaves it up to the operator
> otherwise. I'd rather leave it that way to offer these semantics:
> - cassandra stop = shutdown nicely [explicit flush, then kill -int]
> - kill -INT = shutdown faster but don't lose any updates [current behavior]
> - kill -KILL = lose most recent writes unless durable_writes=true and batch
> commits are on [also current behavior]
> But if it's not reasonable to use nodetool from the init script then I guess
> we can just make the shutdown hook flush everything.
