[jira] [Commented] (CASSANDRA-2494) Quorum reads are not monotonically consistent

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-2494?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14906978#comment-14906978 ] 

Aaron Brown commented on CASSANDRA-2494:
----------------------------------------

The relevant code in the patch has changed significantly. Is the monotonic read consistency guarantee still provided?

> Quorum reads should be consistent.  Assume we have a cluster of 3 nodes (X,Y,Z) and a replication factor of 3. If a write of N is committed to X, but not Y and Z, then a read from X should not return N unless the read is committed to at  least two nodes.  To ensure this, a read from X should wait for an ack of the read repair write from either Y or Z before returning.
> Are there system tests for cassandra?  If so, there should be a test similar to the original post in the email thread.  One thread should write 1,2,3... at consistency level ONE.  Another thread should read at consistency level QUORUM from a random host, and verify that each read is >= the last read.
