----------------------------------------------
See CASSANDRA-6666
> HintedHandoff - expired hints may block future hints deliveries
> ---------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CASSANDRA-6998
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6998
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core
> Environment: - cluster of two DCs: DC1, DC2
> - keyspace using NetworkTopologyStrategy (replication factors for both DCs)
> - heavy load (write:read, 100:1) with LOCAL_QUORUM using Java driver setup
> with DC awareness, writing to DC1
> Reporter: Scooletz
> Labels: HintedHandoff, TTL
> Fix For: 2.0.3
>
>
> For tests purposes, DC2 was shut down for 1 day. The _hints_ table was filled
> with millions of rows. Now, when _HintedHandOffManager_ tries to
> _doDeliverHintsToEndpoint_ it queries the store with
> QueryFilter.getSliceFilter which counts deleted (TTLed) cells and throws
> org.apache.cassandra.db.filter.TombstoneOverwhelmingException.
> Throwing this exception stops the manager from running compaction as it is
> run only after successful handoff. This leaves the HH practically disabled
> till administrator runs truncateAllHints.
> Wouldn't it be nicer if on
> org.apache.cassandra.db.filter.TombstoneOverwhelmingException run compaction?
> That would remove TTLed hints leaving whole HH mechanism in a healthy state.
