If node fails to join a ring it will stay in joining state indefinately
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: CASSANDRA-3351
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-3351
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 0.8.6
Environment: xlarge ec2, Ubuntu 11.04 Natty, JNA
Reporter: Tuukka Luolamo
Priority: Trivial
While attempting to add a new node to my ring something went wrong and I had to
terminate the node on ec2. After this the node keeps appearing in the ring
command in "joining" state and never goes away. Per driftx on the Cassandra
channel if I do a whole cluster restart it should go away, but since this is a
production system this is not really possible. Additionally if I could join a
node with same IP again this should go away, but being on ec2 this is not
always easy. So not sure if this truly qualifies as a bug or more like a
feature request, but I feel there should be a way to remove a node in state if
I wish without joining a node with same ip or doing a whole cluster restart.
