             Summary: Allow cache to start in degraded mode
                 Key: ISPN-12179
                 URL: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/ISPN-12179
             Project: Infinispan
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core
    Affects Versions: 12.0.0.Dev01, 11.0.1.Final
            Reporter: Dan Berindei
            Assignee: Dan Berindei
             Fix For: 12.0.0.Final, 12.0.0.Dev02


Caches expect to receive an initial state for the other nodes during startup ({{await-initial-transfer="true"}} by default).

There is an exception to this rule when rebalancing is suspended: the cache is able to start on a joiner without receiving any state.

However, this exception does not apply when a cache is in DEGRADED mode and rebalancing is implicitly suspended. Instead a joiner will wait until the cache goes back to AVAILABLE mode in order to start the initial state transfer, or fail to start with a generic {{Initial state transfer timed out for cache %s on %s}} error message.

We should handle caches in DEGRADED mode the same way we handle caches with rebalancing suspended, and allow joiners to start without waiting.
