------------------------------------
Summary: Node IDs are not guaranteed to be unique after reboot
Key: IGNITE-9499
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IGNITE-9499
Project: Ignite
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Chaouki Dhib
Ignite uses the JDK's UUID.randomUUID() method to generated a UUID as the the
node id. This method generates UUID of variant 2 and of version 4. The version
4 is just a randomly generated ID. Therefore, there is no guarantee that after
a reboot, a node will have not the same ID as before. The probably of this
happening is extremely small [1], but the fact is, the current implementation
is non-deterministic. The problem can easily be fixed by using a UUID of
version 1 (that makes use of a timestamp and of the node's MAC address) [2].
[1] Cf [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universally_unique_identifier#Collisions]
[2] [https://github.com/cowtowncoder/java-uuid-generator] provides such
fonctioanlity.
