Brandon Williams commented on CASSANDRA-5916:
---------------------------------------------
The problem runs a little deeper, too: even if you specify the right uuid, and
the replace fails for whatever reason, now they're out of sync again and you
can't do the replace at all.
> gossip and tokenMetadata get hostId out of sync on failed replace_node

> If you try to replace_node an existing, live hostId, it will error out.
> However if you're using an existing IP to do this (as in, you chose the wrong
> uuid to replace on accident) then the newly generated hostId wipes out the
> old one in TMD, and when you do try to replace it replace_node will complain
> it does not exist. Examination of gossipinfo still shows the old hostId,
> however now you can't replace it either.
