Sylvain Lebresne resolved CASSANDRA-3316.
-----------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Reviewer: slebresne
+1, committed.
I don't think it's worth adding a nodetool command (more precisely I think it's
a feature that it's not too easy to trigger this) because we don't expect
people to use that hopefully. It's more to have a solution available if it
comes to that.
> Add a JMX call to force cleaning repair sessions (in case they are hang up)

> A repair session contains many parts, most of which are not local to the node
> (implying the node waits on those operation). You request merkle trees, then
> you schedule streaming (and in 1.0.0, some of the streaming don't involve the
> local node itself). It's lots of place where something can go wrong, and if
> so it leaves the repair hanging and as a consequence it leaves a
> repairSessions tasks sitting active on the 'AntiEntropy Session' executor.
> Obviously, we should improve the detection by repair of those things that can
> go wrong. CASSANDRA-2433 started and CASSANDRA-3112 is open to fill as much
> of the remaining parts as possible, but my bet is that it will be hard to
> cover everything (and it may not be worth of handling very improbable failure
> scenario). Besides CASSANDRA-3112 will involve change in the wire protocol,
> so it may take some time to be committed. In the meantime, it would be nice
> to provide a JMX call to force terminating repairSessions so that you don't
> end up in the case where you have enough 'zombie' sessions on the executor
> that you can't submit new ones (you could restart the node but it's ugly).
> Anyway, it's not a big issue but it would be simple to add such a JMX call.
