Hi All,

We are running Cassandra 2.0.2 and have recently stumbled upon an issue with 
nodetool repair. Upon running nodetool repair on each of the 5 nodes in the 
ring (one at a time) we observe the following exceptions returned to standard 
out;

The /var/log/cassandra/system.log shows similar info as above with no real 
explanation as to the root cause behind the exception(s).  There also does not 
appear to be any additional info in /var/log/cassandra/cassandra.log. We have 
tried restoring a recent snapshot of the keyespace in question to a separate 
staging ring and the repair runs successfully and without exception there. This 
is even after we tried insert/delete on the keyspace in the separate staging 
ring. Has anyone seen this behavior before and what can we do to resolve this? 
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,
-Dave
