Hi, I'm testing out failover for 0.6.0-RC1 and seeing varied behavior in Cassandra's ability to replay the commit log after a forced failure.
My test is this: 1) Run ./cassandra -f 2) Insert a value through the CLI and immediately force a shutdown of cassandra after I see the "Value inserted" confirmation from the CLI. If I shutdown cassandra quickly, within a second or two of seeing "Value Inserted" the data seems to be lost after starting cassandra back up. I did a nodetool repair and flush as well just in case that may have had any affect. Conversely, if I waited about 5 seconds before shutting down cassandra, then started it again, I was able to retrieve the data from the CLI. Any ideas? Thanks in advance, Mark
