Josh McKenzie commented on CASSANDRA-17679: ------------------------------------------- bq. the feature is known to be broken The feature is _suspected_ to be broken. Strongly suspected, but there's a difference. If you feel strongly about this Paulo we should remove the feature unless someone's willing to step forward and both advocate for it as well as propose a path to thoroughly proving its correctness and fixing issues that are uncovered with the feature. > Make resumable bootstrap feature optional > ----------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-17679 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-17679 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Consistency/Streaming > Reporter: Josh McKenzie > Assignee: Josh McKenzie > Priority: Normal > Fix For: 4.x > > Time Spent: 10m > Remaining Estimate: 0h > > From the patch I'm working on: > {code} > # In certain environments, operators may want to disable resumable bootstrap > in order to avoid potential correctness > # violations or data loss scenarios. Largely this centers around nodes going > down during bootstrap, tombstones being > # written, and potential races with repair. By default we leave this on as > it's been enabled for quite some time, > # however the option to disable it is more palatable now that we have zero > copy streaming as that greatly accelerates > # bootstraps. This defaults to true. > # resumable_bootstrap_enabled: true > {code} > Not really a great fit for guardrails as it's less a "feature to be toggled > on and off" and more a subset of a specific feature that in certain > circumstances can lead to issues. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: commits-unsubscr...@cassandra.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: commits-h...@cassandra.apache.org
