Thank you for this workaround.

> After CASSANDRA-7087, if you try to start cassandra while another instance is
> already running, you'll see something like this:
> {noformat}
> $ bin/cassandra -f
> Error: Exception thrown by the agent : java.lang.NullPointerException
> {noformat}
> This is probably a JVM bug, but we should confirm that, open a JVM ticket,
> and see if we can give a more useful error message on the C* side.
