It might be a bug.
Cassandra, AFAIK, scans those files for changes and updates the topology
(So you don't need a restart if you change the files). It might be the case
that the absence of the file, is still noticed by Cassandra even if it is
not really used.
I can do a small test to confirm, if so
Hi All,
We have a new observation.
Earlier for implementing multiple network interfaces, we were deleting
cassandra-topologies.properties in the last step (Steps are mentioned in mail
trail).
The rationale was that because we are using altogether a new endpoint_snitch ,
we don't require cassan
