"I feel your pain" => I is quite big :). This morning I had 6 nodes, tried
to up one, have it decommissioned, try to replace it by an other in 1.1.6,
failed and now try to restart one of the 5 remaining nodes and it fails
restarting... Now I have 4 nodes instead of 6 and I am taking heavy load...

"Did you try restoring the snapshots you took and downgrading to 1.1.6"

Snapshot are from a few hours ago and will be used as last solution. all my
5 nodes are currently 1.1.6.

"We are barely trying to make our cluster stay up"

I wish you good luck with that.
