Great stuff! You wrote "When the replica node comes back online the coordinator node will send the data to the replica node", which is partially true - if the replica comes back online within the timeout window of three hours. So, you probably want to say something like:
"If the replica node comes back online within the hinted handoff window the coordinator node will send the data to the replica node, otherwise the replica node will need to be repaired." And maybe mention the configuration of the window. Change "The data is stored for a default period of 3 hours" to "The data is stored for a default period of 3 hours, configurable using the max_hint_window_in_ms property in cassandra.yaml." -- Jack Krupansky On Mon, Nov 30, 2015 at 2:24 AM, Michael Edge <edge.mich...@gmail.com> wrote: > Write path docs updated on Wiki - please review diagram/text and let me > have your comments (or update text in place). > > https://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/WritePathForUsers > > Cheers, > > Michael > > On 26 November 2015 at 11:25, Michael Shuler <mich...@pbandjelly.org> > wrote: > > > On 11/25/2015 07:36 PM, Michael Edge wrote: > > > I'd like to update the read/write path description on the wiki (see > link > > > below) by adding a couple of UML sequence diagrams I drew a while ago. > I > > > think they are much better than long textual descriptions for > describing > > > the order of operations on components.
