Jonathan Ellis updated CASSANDRA-2494:
--------------------------------------

    Attachment: 2494.txt

I don't see any reason not to guarantee that the replicas we read from provide monotonic read consistency.

Patch attached to do this.

> As discussed in this thread,
> http://www.mail-archive.com/user@cassandra.apache.org/msg12421.html
> Quorum reads should be consistent.  Assume we have a cluster of 3 nodes (X,Y,Z) and a replication factor of 3. If a write of N is committed to X, but not Y and Z, then a read from X should not return N unless the read is committed to at  least two nodes.  To ensure this, a read from X should wait for an ack of the read repair write from either Y or Z before returning.
> Are there system tests for cassandra?  If so, there should be a test similar to the original post in the email thread.  One thread should write 1,2,3... at consistency level ONE.  Another thread should read at consistency level QUORUM from a random host, and verify that each read is >= the last read.
