I already had this kind of trouble while repairing a month ago. I have problems that I am the only one to have. I guess I have something wrong either in the configuration of my nodes or in my data that makes them wrong after a restart/repair.
I am planning to try deploying an EC2 cluster with datastax AMI to be sure of the integrity of the server. I will put my data into it and try all maintenance reparation (repair, cleanup, rolling restart and so on). If you are interested in my start logs, here they are : https://gist.github.com/2762493 https://gist.github.com/2762495 Thanks for your help Aaron.
