Yes the OPP will could give you a distribution like that.

Given that only two nodes have data, and they seem to have same amount of data. I wonder if all your keys are falling into the key range of the last node? So with RF 2 they go to the last and first node only.

As an experiment you could try running the nodetool loadbalance command against node 2 and see how the distribution and tokens change. Then perhaps try against node 1.   http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/Operations

You'll need to consider how your keys are distributed when using the OPP and set the tokens to get the best distribution.

Hi All,

We are working with a Cassandra Cluster consisting 3 nodes with each having storage capacity of 0.5 Terabytes.
We are loading the data into the cluster with OrderPreservingPartition and with Replication Factor 2

The Data that has been loaded so far looks as follows:

Address       Status     Load          Range                                      Ring
                                             vHexMxAF1Te2bOvu                         
Server1 Up         292.98 GB     UHYqNsmZpD8DtZvw                          |<--|
Server3 Up         292.77 GB     ghbzYZ6U6uYQbK6g                           |   |
Server2 Up         917 bytes       vHexMxAF1Te2bOvu                           |-->|

As you can see the server2 is still empty, we guess it is for OrderPreservingPartion that we are using.

Is this an expected behavior of Cassandra?
