-----------------------------------------
Summary: Compatibility mode for 2.1
Key: CASSANDRA-6570
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6570
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Task
Components: Core
Reporter: Jonathan Ellis
Assignee: Marcus Eriksson
Fix For: 2.1
Upgrading to a new major Cassandra release is a big commitment, because once on
a new version you can't downgrade again because we write new-version sstables.
Let's add an option to write old-version sstables so that users can try
upgrading a single 2.1 RC node in a 2.0 cluster with the safety net of being
able to back it out if anything goes wrong.
