Whenever I do failure testing I see this error message and then cassandra process exits. This is what I am doing:
1. 3 node cluster. CF of RF=3, W=QUORUM and R=QUORUM 2. Execute client code in a loop which just reads data from CF in while loop. 2. Bring one node down (Node C). Everything ok. Client is happy (as expected) 3. Bring one more node down (Node A). Client throws error (as expected) 4. Bring one node up and then I receive following error message in cassandra and cassandra exits at this point. Please help. But sometimes when I bring some other node up first (Node C) and then bring up this node (A)then it works. Not sure what's going on here.
