Josh McKenzie updated CASSANDRA-17896: -------------------------------------- Status: Open (was: Patch Available) > Failed replacements due to "Cannot replace token xxx which does not exist" > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-17896 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-17896 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Consistency/Streaming > Reporter: Josh McKenzie > Assignee: Josh McKenzie > Priority: Normal > Fix For: 4.x > > > Host replacements require host ID and token, however reporting of this info > is typically blocked when the “status” field is missing. We should expose a > system env (-D) param to advanced operators to have the ability to specify > the replace_addresses_token to be used during host replacement in cases where > Gossip gets into a bad state. > Given this is inherently an unsafe / high risk manual intervention, we want > to avoid promoting this to being a config param however Gossip quite often > contorts into problematic split-brain states like this and having the ability > to manually override things helps unstick host replacements that go > straddled. Should update NEWS.txt at the very least and consider > documentation as well > This is an interim solution that'll be obviated by CEP-21, but is still > useful on existing clusters. -- 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
