Paul Chandler commented on CASSANDRA-19495:
-------------------------------------------
No it does not solve the problem, but I think it shows the cause of it.
If the hint file is small the earliest hint is never cleared, so next time the
node goes down, it uses the earliest hint ( from the first time the node went
down ) and if it is after the hint window, then no hints are written for the
second outage of the node.
> Hints not stored after node goes down for the second time

> Key: CASSANDRA-19495
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-19495
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Consistency/Hints
> Reporter: Paul Chandler
> Assignee: Brandon Williams
> Priority: Normal
> Fix For: 4.1.x, 5.0.x, 5.x
>
>
> I have a scenario where a node goes down, hints are recorded on the second
> node and replayed, as expected. If the first node goes down for a second time
> and time span between the first time it stopped and the second time it
> stopped is more than the max_hint_window then the hint is not recorded, no
> hint file is created, and the mutation never arrives at the node after it
> comes up again.
> I have debugged this and it appears to due to the way hint window is
> persisted after https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-14309
> The code here:
> [https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blame/cassandra-4.1/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/service/StorageProxy.java#L2402]
> uses the time stored in the HintsBuffer.earliestHintByHost map. This map is
> based on the UUID of the host, but this does not seem to be cleared when the
> node is back up, and I think this is what is causing the problem.
>
> This is in cassandra 4.1.5
