    Description

      Failure to have JNA working properly is such a common undetected problem that it would be far preferable to have Cassandra refuse to startup unless JNA is initialized. In theory, this should be much less of a problem with Cassandra 2.1 due to CASSANDRA-5872, but even there, it might fail due to native lib problems, or might otherwise be misconfigured. A yaml override, such as boot_without_jna would allow the deliberate overriding of this policy.
