Hi, We have a cassandra cluster of 6 nodes with RF=3, read-repair enabled, hinted handoff disabled, WRITE with QUORUM, READ with ONE. we want to rely on read-repair totally for node failure, as returning inconsistent result temporarily is ok for us.
If a node is temporarily dead and returneded to the cluster later, everything seems fine. If a node is damaged and a new node with different IP is added, can I just assign dead node's initialToken to him and have read-repair handle everything? I have read the wiki: http://www.riptano.com/docs/0.6.5/operations/clustering . But in order to keep it simple, I don't want to use autobootstrap, noderepair, removetoken, etc -- Best Regards, Chen Xinli
