Paulo Motta commented on CASSANDRA-11537: ----------------------------------------- I might take a stab at this prehistoric ticket. I think the cleanest way to do that would be to check if {{StorageServiceMBean.isInitialized()}} at the end of [NodeProbe.connect()|https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/trunk/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/tools/NodeProbe.java#L292] and throw a friendly error if not. However, I'm not sure this is the right thing to do, as other Mbeans (ie. GCInspectorMXBean) would be inacessible before {{StorageServiceMBean}} is ready. Do you know if this would be a problem [~brandon.williams]? Otherwise we need to check if {{StorageServiceMBean.isInitialized()}} per {{NodeProbe}} method, and exclude any method which should be accessible before storage service is ready, which would make this a bit uglier and more fragile. > Give clear error when certain nodetool commands are issued before server is > ready > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-11537 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-11537 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Legacy/Observability, Local/Startup and Shutdown > Reporter: Edward Capriolo > Priority: Low > Labels: lhf > > As an ops person upgrading and servicing Cassandra servers, I require a more > clear message when I issue a nodetool command that the server is not ready > for it so that I am not confused. > Technical description: > If you deploy a new binary, restart, and issue nodetool > scrub/compact/updatess etc you get unfriendly assertion.
