[jira] [Commented] (CASSANDRA-6542) nodetool removenode hangs

["Justen Walker (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Justen Walker commented on CASSANDRA-6542:
------------------------------------------

I've had this happen in 1.1.11. 

Unfortunately this version does not have a {removenode force} command; you have to use unsafe JMX methods to force-remove the node.

> Running *nodetool removenode $host-id* doesn't actually remove the node from the ring.  I've let it run anywhere from 5 minutes to 3 days and there are no messages in the log about it hanging or failing, the command just sits there running.  So the regular response has been to run *nodetool removenode $host-id*, give it about 10-15 minutes and then run *nodetool removenode force*.
