Sylvain Lebresne commented on CASSANDRA-5107:
---------------------------------------------
Can't that be because we start gossiper before setting the applicationState
(including the host_id)? Granted we have a 1 second delay before really
starting the gossipTask, but if those stack traces come from the test bot,
maybe sometime the machine is slow enough that you can have a whole second
interruption of the thread initializing the server.
In any case, this feel dangerous to me. Maybe we could split Gossiper.start
into a Gossiper.init(), followed by the addition of the applicationstate that
we expect to be always there, and then we start it.
