[jira] [Created] (CASSANDRA-16815) Background schedule to clean up orphaned hints files

Yifan Cai created CASSANDRA-16815:
-------------------------------------

             Summary: Background schedule to clean up orphaned hints files
                 Key: CASSANDRA-16815
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-16815
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Yifan Cai
            Assignee: Yifan Cai


Host replacement is possible to produce orphaned hints files that the original associated host ID no longer exist in the cluster (i.e., being replaced). Those orphaned hints files will not be dispatched and only consumes up the disk space. 

We can have a background schedule that infrequently checks and deletes the files if they are orphaned and have exceeded the TTL.
