Hi I had a doubt regarding C* node recovery process.
Assumption : A two data center C* cluster with RF=3 and CL=LOCAL_QUORUM Suppose a node went down for a period within hinted_handoff time. Once the node comes up automatic data syncing would start for that node. This recovery may take some time. So my doubt is, during this period, if a read for a key stored on recovering node comes, will the coordinator node ask for data from recovering nodes which might possibly have stale data? If yes, then, how does a C* client handle the situation when majority of nodes for a key in one data center are recovering and it can end up getting stale data? Help much appreciated. Thanks Akash
