nodetool enablehintsfordc
operates on a single node in the cluster if -h is not used to identify one or more other nodes. If the node from which you issue the command is the intended target, you do not need the -h option to identify the target; otherwise, for remote invocation, identify the target node, or nodes, using -h.- [--] can be used to separate command-line options from the list of arguments, when the list might be mistaken for options.
Description
The nodetool enablehintsfordc
command is used to turn on hints for a
datacenter. The cassandra.yaml file has a parameter, hinted_handoff_disabled_datacenters that will blacklist datacenters on startup. If
a datacenter can be enabled later with nodetool enablehintsfordc
.
