Omri Bahumi created CASSANDRA-8436: -------------------------------------- Summary: Replacing a dead node by deleting it and bootstrapping a new one Key: CASSANDRA-8436 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-8436 Project: Cassandra Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Omri Bahumi
I brought this subject up in the mailing list, now I'm bringing it up in here. I'm trying to automate our Cassandra infrastructure. We're using an Autoscaling Group for keeping the Cassandra instances alive. After the initial cluster creation, nodes are launched with auto_bootstrap enabled. I was thinking to automate the process of node deletion (when a node terminates) and have the new launched node replace it. Reading the documentation, replacing a dead node should be done with "-Dcassandra.replace_address=<ip-address>". Is deleting the node and bootstrapping a new one a feasible solution? -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
