Brandon Williams commented on CASSANDRA-10371: ---------------------------------------------- bq. Double checked gossip info (ccm node1 nodetool gossipinfo) and still see node3 info. That is normal, for 72 hours. You should open a new ticket for any further issues. > Decommissioned nodes can remain in gossip > ----------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-10371 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-10371 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Distributed Metadata > Reporter: Brandon Williams > Assignee: Joel Knighton > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 2.1.14, 2.2.6, 3.0.4, 3.4 > > > This may apply to other dead states as well. Dead states should be expired > after 3 days. In the case of decom we attach a timestamp to let the other > nodes know when it should be expired. It has been observed that sometimes a > subset of nodes in the cluster never expire the state, and through heap > analysis of these nodes it is revealed that the epstate.isAlive check returns > true when it should return false, which would allow the state to be evicted. > This may have been affected by CASSANDRA-8336. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
