Hi, I would like to extend our cassandra system by another node. It contains about 800GB data right now. I have set up another host and installed cassandra (both 0.6.3). The new cassandra node starts up and contacts the first to receive "load info" and then tries to receive the bootstrap token:

Not receiving any streams. I'd like to know how long it can take until the bootstrap token is received. I guess we may have about 500 million keys on the seed node. What I was wondering too, is the short host is dead and host is UP notice. I have no idea where this comes from. The seed node says operation mode is normal. Thanks, Leo. -- Matthias L.
