>             Project: Cassandra
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 0.8.2

> If a new node is brought up while a node is down, it will think it is up forever.
> To reproduce:
> Take nodes A, B and C.
> 1. Bring up nodes A and B in a cluster
> 2. Take down B and wait for A to mark it as down
> 3. Bring up C with A as a seed
> 4. nodetool ring on C shows all 3 nodes as up and never marks B as down
> The problem is that the failure detector never learns about node B - FD.report is never called for B.  This means requests are constantly routed to B from C and timeout, but they should fail with UnavailableException.
> The attached (hack) patch appears to fix it, but I expect the problem is actually elsewhere in the gossip code.
