[jira] Commented: (CASSANDRA-564) Provide recoverability when a node dies and it is impossible to get the same IP.

["Jonathan Ellis (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-564?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12783826#action_12783826 ] 

Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-564:
------------------------------------------

IMO the right approach here is to have a JMX command telling it to trigger the decommission code for a node that is no longer alive to broadcast that cleanly.

> From the descriptions on the mailing list, when a node dies permanently from hardware or other failure and you need to replace it, it must have the same IP.  For people running in cloud environments, this is often times impossible.  So it would be very useful if there was a way to replace a node with a new node without requiring the same IP.
