Andres de la Peña commented on CASSANDRA-18301: ----------------------------------------------- {quote}{quote} I remember there is sthg in Gossip to check the version of the whole cluster. {quote}{quote} There are some methods in {{Gossiper}} for this, like {{{}getMinVersion{}}}, {{{}hasMajorVersion3Nodes{}}}, etc. I guess we would need to extend those to propagate the compatibility mode, or perhaps directly declare the node to be on that version, not sure. So a coordinator rejects large deletion times if there are nodes that aren't on 5.0, or that are in 5.0 configured to be compatible with an older version. I don't think we need a feature flag for the extended deletion times if we have that compatibility mode. I mean, the range of representation of deletion times doesn't seem something to be turning on and off at will. I think we only need to avoid it during upgrades. > Let the user select the sstable version to write > ------------------------------------------------ > > Key: CASSANDRA-18301 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-18301 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Local/Config, Local/SSTable > Reporter: Jacek Lewandowski > Assignee: Jacek Lewandowski > Priority: Normal > -- 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
