Due to administrative error one of the hosts in the cluster lost permission
to write to it's data directory.
So I started seeing errors in the log, however, the server continued serving
traffic. It wasn't able to compact and do other write operations but it
didn't crash.
I was wondering wether that's by design and if so, is this a good one... I
guess I want to know if really bad things happen to my cluster...
logs look like that...
