hi guys, we have a 6 node cluster, consisting of 5 linux machines and a windows one.
Mixed linux/windows clusters are not a supported configuration. It might work.

after a hard shutdown of the windows machine, the node is stuck on hints compaction for more than half an hour and cassandra won't start. must say that it is a strong machine with 16gb of ram and 250 gb of space dedicated to the node. all other nodes are up. what could be the problem causing this?
I'm not sure if your mixed-OS cluster is by choice, or if you are simply testing out the feasibility of running mixed-OS clusters. It may be interesting to continue to see where you get with trying to work through your problem, and if some improvements could be made to fix whatever problem you are having, please open a jira ticket with your discoveries.
As Paulo mentioned, you'll need to dig through log details and do some thorough investigation to help others help you, since you are in untested waters. :)
