Brandon Williams commented on CASSANDRA-6585:
---------------------------------------------
I thought about those, but came to this conclusion: what really matters is
whether the snap is valid or not. When you're half-bootstrapped, you don't
have all the data, and your snap will be invalid/useless. When you're moving
or relocating, though, you do have a complete set of data (for some token(s) at
least) so if you took a snap, it could be used later.
> Make node tool exit code non zero when it fails to create snapshot

> When node tool snapshot is invoked on a bootstrapping node, it does not
> create the snapshot as expected. However node tool returns a zero exit code
> in that case. Can we make the node tool return a non zero exit code when
> create snapshot fails?
