The test is currently flaky with `reuse_ip = True`. The issue is that the
test retries replace before the first replace is rolled back and the
first replacing node is removed from gossip. The second replacing node
can see the entry of the first replacing node in gossip. This entry has
a newer generation than the entry of the node being replaced, and both
replacing nodes have the same IP as the node being replaced. Therefore,
the second replacing node incorrectly considers this entry as the entry
of the node being replaced. This entry is missing rack and DC, so the
second replace fails with
```

If you can use an existing folder, consider adding your test to it. New folders should be used for new large categories/subsystems, or when the test environment is significantly different from some existing suite, e.g. you plan to start scylladb with different configuration, and you intend to add many tests and would like them to reuse an existing Scylla cluster (clusters can be reused for tests within the same folder).
To add a new folder, create a new directory, and then
copy & edit its suite.ini.
