             Summary: Make it possible to monitor an ideal consistency level 
separate from actual consistency level
                 Key: CASSANDRA-13289
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-13289
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core
            Reporter: Ariel Weisberg
            Assignee: Ariel Weisberg


As an operator there are several issues related to multi-datacenter replication 
and consistency you may want to have more information on from your production 
database.

For instance. If your application writes at LOCAL_QUORUM how often are those 
writes failing to achieve EACH_QUORUM at other data centers. If you failed your 
application over to one of those data centers roughly how inconsistent might it 
be given the number of writes that didn't propagate since the last incremental 
repair?

You might also want to know roughly what the latency of writes would be if 
switch to a different consistency level. For instance you are writing at 
LOCAL_QUORUM and want to know what would happen if you switched to EACH_QUORUM.

The proposed change is to allow an ideal_consistency_level to be specified in 
cassandra.yaml as well as get/set via JMX. If no ideal consistency level is 
specified no additional tracking is done.

if an ideal consistency level is specified then the 
{{AbstractWriteResponesHandler}} will contain a delegate WriteResponseHandler 
that tracks whether the ideal consistency level is met before a write times 
out. It also tracks the latency for achieving the ideal CL  of successful 
writes on.

These two metrics would be reported on a per Keyspace basis.
