             Summary: Tool to recover orphaned partitions
                 Key: CASSANDRA-11355
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-11355
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Wish
            Reporter: Devin Suiter
            Priority: Minor


Sometimes due to interrupted topology changes, nodes forced to join for some reason, or other operations that could shift token ownership, in conjunction with some other poor practices, could leave a situation where a partition replica left on a node that no longer owns it is the only correct replica of that partition.

Is there value to a nodetool command, or an option to the cleanup command, that would walk through keys left on a node that were outside that node's range, determine the current endpoints, and stream the replicas to the current endpoints if that record is the newest record?

It seems like repair would ignore those partitions currently, and cleanup simply removes them.
