---------------------------------------------
Summary: Add Sanity Checks for User Modifiable Settings
Key: CASSANDRA-4665
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-4665
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core
Reporter: Benjamin Coverston
Priority: Trivial
I've looked at a several environments that have had some problems that may have
been more easily identified if there was some type of warning or error thrown
if some of the user modifiable settings had some sanity check associated with
it.
In one instance I saw a cluster that was having memory issues. After looking at
the YAML they had:
index_interval: 32
I'm not sure why anyone would set this lower than the default. They didn't even
know what the setting did. Perhaps if we issued a warning on startup in cases
like this it could have been resolved more quickly and easily.
