Rick Branson created CASSANDRA-5565:
---------------------------------------

             Summary: Peer entry drop from system table silently when 
bootstrapping a node with an existing IP.
                 Key: CASSANDRA-5565
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-5565
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core
    Affects Versions: 1.2.4
            Reporter: Rick Branson


It looks like CASSANDRA-5167 introduced a bit of a regression. I needed to 
rebuild the data on a malfunctioning node by rebootstrapping it. I did this by 
cleaning the host and restarting Cassandra. My plan was to remove the old 
hostID once it had successfully bootstrapped. 

No errors were encountered, but the old host ID of the node before the wipe was 
completely dropped from the peers table because they had the same IP address, 
and therefore the data ranges were moved around. This resulted in a large 
number of CL.ONE reads coming back empty.

There might be a better approach to this rebootstrap process, but it seems like 
it's dangerous to just drop the peer from the table, especially without any 
kind of log message.
