Thomas Whaples created CASSANDRA-4440: -----------------------------------------
Summary: Better output desired to diagnose hung bootstrap due to partial connectivity Key: CASSANDRA-4440 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-4440 Project: Cassandra Issue Type: Improvement Components: Core Reporter: Thomas Whaples Priority: Trivial Fix For: 0.8.10 I was attempting to set up a new node and bootstrap it into my cluster. Due to an error in my network configuration, this node was able to communicate with only a portion of the existing nodes (it could connect to 3 out of 5 existing nodes). As a result, the node transferred some data, but ultimately got stuck in a state of 'Joining' the cluster and not doing anything. Unfortunately, it was a little tricky to diagnose. I only figured it out when I turned on debug-level monitoring and saw a message about trying to establish an outbound connection (not a *failure* to establish it, just a note that it was trying to establish one. I'd quote it, but the debug logs got rotated in the logspew.) For posterity, I would like to request that a node in this sort of a situation present additional messages or other diagnostics. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
