Hi, Assuming I'm reading and writing with consitency level 1 (one), read repair turned off, I have a few questions about data propagation. Data is being stored at consistency level 3.
I'm not interested in the deletes. I can live with older data (or data that has been deleted and will reappear), but I need to know how long it will take until the data will be available at the other nodes, since I have turned read repair off. 1) If all nodes are up: - Will all writes eventually reach all nodes (of the 3 nodes)? - What will be the maximal time until the last write reaches the last node (of the 3 nodes)? (e.g. Assume one of the node is doing compactation at that time) 2) If one or two nodes are down - As I understood it, one node will buffer the writes for the remaining nodes. - If the nodes go up again: When will these writes be propagated, at compactation?, what will be the maximal time until the writes reach the 2 nodes? Will these writes be propagated at all? In case of 2: The best way would then be to run nodetool repair after the two nodes will be available again. Is there a way to make the node not accept any connections during that time until it is finished repairing? (eg throw the Unavailableexception) Thanks, Thibaut
