Sam Tunnicliffe commented on CASSANDRA-15120: --------------------------------------------- I share your concerns around making changes to this area in 3.0, but I've spent some time working through this and I believe that this change is correct. I haven't really looked at any of non-test changes made to support gossip/networking in the tests yet, but I'll make another pass at it when you're done with those. > Nodes that join the ring while another node is MOVING build an invalid view > of the token ring > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-15120 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-15120 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Cluster/Gossip, Cluster/Membership > Reporter: Benedict > Assignee: Benedict > Priority: Normal > > Gossip only updates the token metadata for nodes in the NORMAL, SHUTDOWN or > LEAVING* statuses. MOVING and REMOVING_TOKEN nodes do not have their ring > information updated (nor do others, but these other states _should_ only be > taken by nodes that are not members of the ring). > If a node missed the most recent token-modifying events because they were not > a member of the ring when they happened (or because Gossip was delayed to > them), they will retain an invalid view of the ring until the node enters the > one of the NORMAL, SHUTDOWN or LEAVING states. > *LEAVING is populated differently, however, and in a probably unsafe manner > that this work will also address. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: commits-unsubscr...@cassandra.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: commits-h...@cassandra.apache.org
