Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-4680:
-------------------------------------------
Can we do this w/ the existing gossip information, or do we need to add a
"here's what time it is locally" state?
> Show time drift between nodes when using nodetool ring
> ------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CASSANDRA-4680
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-4680
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Core, Tools
> Reporter: Patrick McFadin
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.2.1
>
>
> From the docs:
> Server clock synchronization is more important in 1.2; replicas
> will use a coordinator-provided timestamp to determine when a
> request has timed out and is thus not worth proceeding with.
> Using a service like NTP is strongly recommended.
> Since this is now more important than ever, my proposed enhancement would be
> to the nodetool command. When displaying the "ring" information, add the time
> drift as relative to the current host.
> This would be a valuable tool to aid in diagnostics.
