["Stu Hood (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-1391?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12898428#action_12898428 ] 

Stu Hood commented on CASSANDRA-1391:
-------------------------------------

But, vitally, if concurrent Migrations do conflict in a way that can't be resolved, keyspaces that didn't conflict should not be affected.

> CASSANDRA-1292 fixed multiple migrations started from the same node to properly queue themselves, but it is still possible for migrations initiated on different nodes to conflict and leave the cluster in a bad state. Since the system_add/drop/rename methods are accessible directly from the client API, they should be completely safe for concurrent use.
> It should be possible to allow for most types of concurrent migrations by converting the UUID schema ID into a VersionVectorClock (as provided by CASSANDRA-580).
