We have a mix environment, where production has authentication enabled and non-production's authentication is disabled for testing and causing a lot of logging.
Is there a way a setting in the Java Driver to suppress the auth warning messages?
Message: did not send an authentication challenge; This is suspicious because the driver expects authentication
I see we logged a request years ago to implement a mechanism for suppressing those warnings, but it was never introduced. If you didn't want to see those, probably the easiest thing to do is change the auth options in the non-prod cluster. Are you using DSE or OSS Cassandra? and what version are you using?
Your question is counter-intuitive and doesn't make sense.
Instead of looking for ways to configure your environment to suppress authentication warnings, you should instead configure your application so it doesn't try to authenticate on clusters where authentication is disabled. All you need to do is not define an authentication provider in the Java driver. Cheers!
My devops team wanted to use Cassandra reaper in sidecar mode in non-prod environment. Reaper didn't want to play nice with Cassandra with AUTH on.
Once the AUTH was disabled, Reaper was able to see the cluster, but getting the warnings.
So, I guess we will see what can be done on Reaper side as it looks like Cassandra doesn't have that option to suppress the warning
