When automatically restarting, you have no idea how long Cassandra has been stopped and for what reason. In some cases, you really do not want it to start up and attempt to participate in whatever cluster it was formerly participating in. I understand this creates a support overhead, especially with very large clusters, but it's difficult for me to accept the premise that net operational safety will be improved by naively restarting nodes. =Rob
