RE: Cassandra is not showing a node up hours after restart

2019-12-06 Thread Paul Mena
As we are still without a functional Cassandra cluster in our development 
environment, I thought I’d try restarting the same node (one of 4 in the 
cluster) with the following command:

ip=$(cat /etc/hostname); nodetool disablethrift && nodetool disablebinary && 
sleep 5 && nodetool disablegossip && nodetool drain && sleep 10 && sudo service 
cassandra restart && until echo "SELECT * FROM system.peers LIMIT 1;" | cqlsh 
$ip > /dev/null 2>&1; do echo "Node $ip is still DOWN"; sleep 10; done && echo 
"Node $ip is now UP"

The above command returned “Node is now UP” after about 40 seconds, confirmed 
on “node001” via “nodetool status”:

user@node001=> nodetool status
Datacenter: datacenter1
===

As was the case before, running “nodetool status” on any of the other nodes 
shows that “node001” is still down:

user@node002=> nodetool status

Is it inadvisable to continue with the rolling restart?

Hi Paul,

From the gossipinfo output, it looks like the node's IP address and rpc_address 
are different.
/192.168.187.121 vs RPC_ADDRESS:192.168.185.121
You can also see that there's a schema disagreement between nodes, e.g. 
schema_id on node001 is fd2dcb4b-ca62-30df-b8f2-d3fd774f2801 and on node002 it 
is fd2dcb4b-ca62-30df-b8f2-d3fd774f2801.
You can run nodetool describecluster to see it as well.
So I suggest to change the rpc_address to the ip_address of the node or set it 
to 0.0.0.0 and it should resolve the issue.

Hope this helps!

Hello ,

Check and compare everything parameters

1. Java version should ideally match across all nodes in the cluster
2. Check if port 7000 is open between the nodes. Use telnet or nc commands
3. You must see some clues in system logs, why the gossip is failing.

Do confirm on the above things.

Thanks

Hello team,

Just to add on to the discussion, one may run,
Nodetool disablebinary followed by a nodetool disablethrift followed by 
nodetool drain.
Nodetool drain also does the work of nodetool flush+ declaring in the cluster 
that I'm down and not accepting traffic.

Thanks
