Brandon Williams commented on CASSANDRA-5915:
---------------------------------------------
Ok, the same UUID does make sense, as long as the IP was not the same as the
one being replaced, so I at least understand that part now. Empty STATUS or why
more ring delay helped is still a mystery.
> node flapping prevents replace_node from succeeding consistently

> Key: CASSANDRA-5915
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-5915
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core
> Environment: 1.2.8
> Reporter: Chris Burroughs
> Attachments: cassandra.log.gz
>
>
> A node was down for a week or two due to hardware disk failure. I tried to
> use replace_node to bring up a new node on the same physical host with the
> same IPs. (rbranson suspected that using the same IP may be more issue
> prone.) This failed due to "unable to find sufficient sources for streaming
> range" See CASSANDRA-5913 for a problem with how the failure was handled by
> gossip.
> All of the other nodes should have been up the entire time, but when this
> node came up it saw nodes flap up and down for quiet some time. I was
> eventually able to get replace_token to work by adding a 60 (!) second sleep
> to StorageService:bootstrap. I don't know if the right path is "why are
> things flapping so much" or "bootstrap should wait until things look stable".
> A few notes about the cluster:
> * 2 dc cluster (about 20 each), using GossipingPropertyFileSnitch
> * multi-dc no vpn setup:
> http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/cassandra-user/201306.mbox/%[email protected]%3E
> Startup log from the successful (with sleep) replace_node attached.
