Folks- Can someone point out what happens during a node failure. Here is the Specific usecase:
- Cassandra cluster with 4 nodes, replication factor of 3 - One node fails. - At this point, data that existed on the one failed node has copies on 2 live nodes. - The failed node never comes back First question: At what point does Cassandra re-migrate that data that only exists on 2 nodes to another node to retain the replication factor of 3? Second question: Given the above case, if a brand new node is added to the cluster, does anything happen to the data that now only exists on 2 nodes? Thanks. -- Virtually, Ned Wolpert "Settle thy studies, Faustus, and begin..." --Marlowe
