             Summary: Apply disk_failure_policy to transaction logs
                 Key: CASSANDRA-10112
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-10112
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Stefania
            Assignee: Stefania


Transaction logs were introduced by CASSANDRA-7066 and are read during 
start-up. In case of file system errors, such as disk corruption, we currently 
log a panic error and leave the sstable files and transaction logs as they are; 
this is to avoid rolling back a transaction (i.e. deleting files) by mistake.

We should instead look at the {{disk_failure_policy}} and refuse to start 
unless the failure policy is {{ignore}}. 

We should also consider stashing files that cannot be read during startup, 
either transaction logs or sstables, by moving them to a dedicated sub-folder.
