Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-4414: ------------------------------------------- bq. I do think we should break this apart into a separate exception I still would like to do this in an ideal world but I think our hands might be tied by the client community... unless we're willing to break everyone who doesn't add IPE, the optional field is a better approach. > Ship the exact cause for timeout and unavailable exception back to the client > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: CASSANDRA-4414 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-4414 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Sylvain Lebresne > Fix For: 1.2 > > > Currently when a client gets a timeout exception, it doesn't know what > happened. But sever side we usually know a little more than that. For > example, for 99% of the timeouts at CL > ONE, we will have some replica that > have acknowlege. I think it could be useful to send that information to the > client with the exception. That could help with monitoring, "post-mortem" > analysis and debugging. > Unavailable exceptions could also ship which nodes were alive and which ones > where not. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
