Aleksey Yeschenko commented on CASSANDRA-18108:
-----------------------------------------------
[~maedhroz] It should be perfectly safe, seeing as you are essentially changing
an alias for an component that is positionally set in stone. There is no reason
to forbid it, and it has never been problematic. If there is a bug somewhere,
it's the bug that needs to be fixed.
> Data loss after a system restart/upgrade (3.11.14)
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CASSANDRA-18108
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-18108
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Ke Han
> Priority: Normal
>
> When we upgrade Cassandra from 3.11.14 to 4.0.7, we found a data loss during
> the upgrade process. This bug can also be triggered if simply performing a
> system restart.
> h1. Steps to reproduce
> Start a 3.11.14 or 4.0.7 Cassandra node using default configurations. Execute
> the following cqlsh commands.
> {code:java}
> CREATE KEYSPACE ks WITH REPLICATION = { 'class' : 'SimpleStrategy',
> 'replication_factor' : 1 };
> CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS ks.tb (c1 INT,c3 INT,c2 TEXT, PRIMARY KEY (c1 ))
> WITH speculative_retry = 'ALWAYS';
> INSERT INTO ks.tb (c1, c2) VALUES (2,'val');
> ALTER TABLE ks.tb DROP c2 ;
> ALTER TABLE ks.tb RENAME c1 TO c2; {code}
> Then execute a SELECT command, we get the correct data
> {code:java}
> cqlsh> SELECT * FROM ks.tb;
> c2 | c3
> ----+------
> 2 | null
> (1 rows){code}
> Flush and stop the Cassandra daemon.
> {code:java}
> bin/nodetool flush
> bin/nodetool stopdaemon{code}
> Then restart the node.
> {code:java}
> bin/cassandra{code}
> Start cqlsh, and execute the same SELECT command. The data in ks.tb is lost.
> {code:java}
> cqlsh> SELECT * FROM ks.tb;
> c2 | c3
> ----+----
> (0 rows){code}
>
> During the node restart, we found an error log about initializing the table,
> but it didn't prevent the system from starting up.

> This bug can also be triggered if we perform an upgrade from 3.11.14 to 4.0.7
> and execute the SELECT command in the new version. (*The token_num
> configuration in 4.0.7 is modified to 16 for upgrade compatibility purposes,
> all the other configurations are using default values)
