Quick note from a driver dev's perspective: Mark, yours sounds like a bad use case for a downgrading retry policy. If your cluster has an RF of 2, and your app requires CL.QUORUM, a downgrading policy will, e.g. try at CL.QUORUM and downgrade below your required CL; or try at CL.ALL, then fail and downgrade to CL.QUORUM or an equivalent, which is what your app needs in the first place. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@cassandra.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@cassandra.apache.org
