"It is expensive?"

I was talking about a full time QA environment equal or similar to a prod
env.

I didn't thought about using a temp QA, and you are right I should have.

"And sorry for not providing the detail on the rolling restart not
working….my bad"

No problem, my point was just to remember you that other member of the
community can use this kind of information.

"but also I think people on the list assume you are going to do some basic
testing if at least to get comfortable with the process"

I did, but on a local machine. That's the hardware I had, so I just tested
it on one machine and made sure the clients were compatible... But I wasn't
aware of ccm. I will use it next time for sure :-).

@Michal

Thanks about ccm.

"on my workstation with a < 0.01% sample of production"

Is there a simple way of getting that ?

@all

Any idea why my node is not restarting now ?

Same result with or without -Dcassandra.load_ring_state=false.

Last log lines before C* process end :

Should I $rm /raid0/cassandra/data/system/HintsColumnFamily/* ?
