Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-3483: ------------------------------------------- So, am I understanding correctly that we're talking about two different scenarios? - Add new DC without repair - Add many nodes to existing DC without RING_DELAY in between I think Sylvain's proposal addresses the first nicely. So what I need help with is understanding what problem you're trying to solve with the second part. Dealing with overlapping ranges in node movement basically requires a rewrite of that subsystem (CASSANDRA-2434). But I suspect there is a "good enough" solution that we could find if I understood better what your pain point is here. > Support bringing up a new datacenter to existing cluster without repair > ----------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-3483 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-3483 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 1.0.2 > Reporter: Chris Goffinet > > Was talking to Brandon in irc, and we ran into a case where we want to bring > up a new DC to an existing cluster. He suggested from jbellis the way to do > it currently was set strategy options of dc2:0, then add the nodes. After the > nodes are up, change the RF of dc2, and run repair. > I'd like to avoid a repair as it runs AES and is a bit more intense than how > bootstrap works currently by just streaming ranges from the SSTables. Would > it be possible to improve this functionality (adding a new DC to existing > cluster) than the proposed method? We'd be happy to do a patch if we got some > input on the best way to go about it. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
