Redpanda Cluster Critical Failure - Node Loss, Quorum Lost, and Data Availability Impacted
  • The Redpanda streaming data platform is experiencing a severe, cascading failure.
  • This typically involves critical errors on one or more nodes (e.g., storage failures), leading to nodes becoming unresponsive or shutting down.
  • Subsequently, this can cause loss of controller quorum, leadership election problems for partitions, and a significant degradation in overall cluster health and data availability.

Redpanda Node Missing State Files on Startup
Detects when a Redpanda node starts up but cannot find key state files, such as the key-value store snapshot or configuration cache. This is normal behavior for a brand-new node starting for the first time but can indicate a problem (like a cleared or misconfigured volume) if it occurs on an existing node that is expected to have state.
