Oleksandr Shulgin commented on CASSANDRA-5836:
----------------------------------------------

[~rcoli] Good point.  But this doesn't make a lot of difference, IMO.  The 
nodes started with {{auto_bootstrap=false}} also receive all writes, but since 
they join more or less immediately, they are also responsible for reads and 
these copies count towards the client request CL.

The difference comes from the fact that a bootstrapping node doesn't fully join 
the ring before bootstrap is complete, so it receives all writes and doesn't 
serve any reads yet.


> Seed nodes should be able to bootstrap without manual intervention

> The current logic doesn't allow a seed node to be bootstrapped.  If a user 
> wants to bootstrap a node configured as a seed (for example to replace a seed 
> node via replace_token), they first need to remove the node's own IP from the 
> seed list, and then start the bootstrap process.  This seems like an 
> unnecessary step since a node never uses itself as a seed.
> I think it would be a better experience if the logic was changed to allow a 
> seed node to bootstrap without manual intervention when there are other seed 
> nodes up in a ring.
