----------------------------------------

             Summary: Unexpired hints can potentially create previously deleted 
rows
                 Key: CASSANDRA-5411
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-5411
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core
    Affects Versions: 1.1.10
         Environment: Ubuntu 10.04
            Reporter: Arya Goudarzi

Hits are TTLed to lowest gc_grace_seconds. If we have hints that are not 
replayed, and the administrator updates schema to have lower gc_grace seconds 
on some CF, chances are compactions will delete tombstones and history of 
delete gets lost. If the deleted row is in some hints CF, since the TTL is not 
updated, chances are it gets replayed and the deleted row comes back to life. 

I think it would be nice as part of schema migration, to also update the TTLs 
on hints that already exists on any nodes hints column family.
