Description

If you are already running a cassandra instance, but for some reason try to start another one, this happens:

INFO  20:57:09 JNA mlockall successful
WARN  20:57:09 JMX is not enabled to receive remote connections. Please see cassandra-env.sh for more info.
ERROR 20:57:10 Error starting local jmx server:

However the startup continues, and ends up replaying commitlogs, which is probably not a good thing.
