Jeremy Hanna commented on CASSANDRA-14499:
------------------------------------------

I just want to add a note of caution to anything automatic happening when 
certain metrics trigger.  I've seen where metrics can misfire under certain 
circumstances which leads to unpredictable cluster behavior.  I would favor 
having a warning system over anything done automatically if it were my cluster.

> Operators should be able to specify, via YAML, the amount of usable disk 
> space on a node as a percentage of the total available or as an absolute 
> value. If both are specified, the absolute value should take precedence. This 
> allows operators to reserve space available to the database for background 
> tasks -- primarily compaction. When a node reaches its quota, gossip should 
> be disabled to prevent it taking further writes (which would increase the 
> amount of data stored), being involved in reads (which are likely to be more 
> inconsistent over time), or participating in repair (which may increase the 
> amount of space used on the machine). The node re-enables gossip when the 
> amount of data it stores is below the quota.   
> The proposed option differs from {{min_free_space_per_drive_in_mb}}, which 
> reserves some amount of space on each drive that is not usable by the 
> database.
