I am running Cassandra 1.2.4 in standalone mode and see a data loss when I stop/start Cassandra [kill the task].
All data is written in atomic mutation batches. I can see the files in commitlog directory but they're not replayed. If I flush the data before stopping Cassandra, it is available on restart. These are steps: 1. Start Cassandra and run the app that adds data. 2. Stop Cassandra and start it again. 3. Query data, not available, not even with cli. I am using default configuration file settings. My understanding is that any data not flushed should be available in commitlog and it should get replayed on restart. - Vishal.
