It's possible that you are not actually missing data, that the fragmentary SSTable you find "missing" is a partially completed file from compaction? I suggest grepping in logs from before the restart to determine if the SSTable you are finding missing "should" actually exist. If you repeatably get this error, adding a test for actually missing data should be pretty easy? =Rob
