Brandon Williams commented on CASSANDRA-1974:
---------------------------------------------
I think when adding a node it's easier to specify once and then bootstrap
rather than rsync it everywhere. And you'd only have 100 separate files if you
had 100 DCs/racks.
> PFEPS-like snitch that uses gossip instead of a property file
> -------------------------------------------------------------

> Affects Versions: 0.7.0

> Now that we have an ec2 snitch that propagates its rack/dc info via gossip
> from CASSANDRA-1654, it doesn't make a lot of sense to use PFEPS where you
> have to rsync the property file across all the machines when you add a node.
> Instead, we could have a snitch where you specify its rack/dc in a property
> file, and propagate this via gossip like the ec2 snitch. In order to not
> break PFEPS, this should probably be a new snitch.
