Ah, missed that. Thanks for the pointer. While we are at it, the doc says that if I am doubling the strength of my cluster, and I assign calculated tokens to the new nodes, i don't need to do the nodetool move for old nodes. Won't I have to assign the old nodes with their new respective tokens too?

Have you done step 6 of the 'To add nodes to a Cassandra cluster' of http://www.datastax.com/docs/0.8/operations/clustering#adding-capacity, aka, run nodetool cleanup on the previously existing nodes ? -- Sylvain On Sun, Sep 4, 2011 at 11:58 AM, amulya rattan wrote: > Hi there, > I had a 3 nodes

Hi there, I had a 3 nodes ring, added a 4th one, and moved others to appropriate tokens..doing nodetool ring shows: 127.0.0.1 datacenter1 rack1 Up Normal 348.82 MB 25.00% 0 127.0.0.2 datacenter1 rack1 Up Normal 349.81 MB 25.00% 42535295865117307932921825928971
