Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-4414:
-------------------------------------------
bq. I do think we should break this apart into a separate exception
I still would like to do this in an ideal world but I think our hands might be
tied by the client community... unless we're willing to break everyone who
doesn't add IPE, the optional field is a better approach.
> Ship the exact cause for timeout and unavailable exception back to the client

> Currently when a client gets a timeout exception, it doesn't know what
> happened. But sever side we usually know a little more than that. For
> example, for 99% of the timeouts at CL > ONE, we will have some replica that
> have acknowlege. I think it could be useful to send that information to the
> client with the exception. That could help with monitoring, "post-mortem"
> analysis and debugging.
> Unavailable exceptions could also ship which nodes were alive and which ones
> where not.
