Yuki Morishita commented on CASSANDRA-6696: ------------------------------------------- [~carlyeks] that test should have been fixed in CASSANDRA-10950. > Partition sstables by token range > --------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-6696 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6696 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: sankalp kohli > Assignee: Marcus Eriksson > Labels: compaction, correctness, dense-storage, > jbod-aware-compaction, performance > Fix For: 3.2 > > > In JBOD, when someone gets a bad drive, the bad drive is replaced with a new > empty one and repair is run. > This can cause deleted data to come back in some cases. Also this is true for > corrupt stables in which we delete the corrupt stable and run repair. > Here is an example: > Say we have 3 nodes A,B and C and RF=3 and GC grace=10days. > row=sankalp col=sankalp is written 20 days back and successfully went to all > three nodes. > Then a delete/tombstone was written successfully for the same row column 15 > days back. > Since this tombstone is more than gc grace, it got compacted in Nodes A and B > since it got compacted with the actual data. So there is no trace of this row > column in node A and B. > Now in node C, say the original data is in drive1 and tombstone is in drive2. > Compaction has not yet reclaimed the data and tombstone. > Drive2 becomes corrupt and was replaced with new empty drive. > Due to the replacement, the tombstone in now gone and row=sankalp col=sankalp > has come back to life. > Now after replacing the drive we run repair. This data will be propagated to > all nodes. > Note: This is still a problem even if we run repair every gc grace. > -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
