Nicolas Favre-Felix commented on CASSANDRA-4482: ------------------------------------------------ bq. What is a tombstone-only repair? This is a separate feature that we provide, that runs the AES on tombstones exclusively. We provide it for users who repair in order to avoid reappearing tombstones rather that to reduce entropy. The main point is that repair and tombstone repair are both guaranteed to result in a synchronized cluster, which is not the case for incremental repair. Thanks for the review offer, I will extract and clean up the patch and submit it to this ticket. > In-memory merkle trees for repair > --------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-4482 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-4482 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Marcus Eriksson > > this sounds cool, we should reimplement it in the open source cassandra; > http://www.acunu.com/2/post/2012/07/incremental-repair.html -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
