Sounds like an older issue that I tried to address two years ago:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-11427
As you can see, the result hasn't been as expected and we got some
unintended side effects based on the patch. I'm not sure I'd be willing
to give this another try, considering t
Jaydeep, thanks for taking this discussion to the dev list. I think it's
the best place to introduce new idea, discuss them in general and how
they potentially fit in. As already mention in the ticket, I do share
your assessment that we should try to improve making operational issue
more visible to
I agree with Stefan that we should use incremental repair and use patches
from Marcus to drop tombstones only from repaired data.
Regarding deep repair, you can bump the read repair and run the repair. The
issue will be that you will stream lot of data and also your blocking read
repair will go up
That makes sense going forward (assuming it works), but this is still
pretty surprising behaviour. Although disregarding the read repair factor
entirely, the result will *eventually* come true when the tombstones are
purged, we're still returning a result that doesn't match up with what we
have on
Thanks Stefan for reviewing this, please find my comments inline:
>We already provide tons of metrics and provide some useful logging (e.g.
when reading too many tombstones), but I think we should still be able to
implement further >checks in-code that highlight potentially issues. Maybe
we could
