Joel Knighton updated CASSANDRA-10134: -------------------------------------- Reviewer: Joel Knighton > Always require replace_address to replace existing address > ---------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-10134 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-10134 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Distributed Metadata > Reporter: Tyler Hobbs > Assignee: Stefania > Fix For: 3.x > > > Normally, when a node is started from a clean state with the same address as > an existing down node, it will fail to start with an error like this: > {noformat} > ERROR [main] 2015-08-19 15:07:51,577 CassandraDaemon.java:554 - Exception > encountered during startup > java.lang.RuntimeException: A node with address /127.0.0.3 already exists, > cancelling join. Use cassandra.replace_address if you want to replace this > node. > at > org.apache.cassandra.service.StorageService.checkForEndpointCollision(StorageService.java:543) > ~[main/:na] > at > org.apache.cassandra.service.StorageService.prepareToJoin(StorageService.java:783) > ~[main/:na] > at > org.apache.cassandra.service.StorageService.initServer(StorageService.java:720) > ~[main/:na] > at > org.apache.cassandra.service.StorageService.initServer(StorageService.java:611) > ~[main/:na] > at > org.apache.cassandra.service.CassandraDaemon.setup(CassandraDaemon.java:378) > [main/:na] > at > org.apache.cassandra.service.CassandraDaemon.activate(CassandraDaemon.java:537) > [main/:na] > at > org.apache.cassandra.service.CassandraDaemon.main(CassandraDaemon.java:626) > [main/:na] > {noformat} > However, if {{auto_bootstrap}} is set to false or the node is in its own seed > list, it will not throw this error and will start normally. The new node > then takes over the host ID of the old node (even if the tokens are > different), and the only message you will see is a warning in the other > nodes' logs: > {noformat} > logger.warn("Changing {}'s host ID from {} to {}", endpoint, storedId, > hostId); > {noformat} > This could cause an operator to accidentally wipe out the token information > for a down node without replacing it. To fix this, we should check for an > endpoint collision even if {{auto_bootstrap}} is false or the node is a seed. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
