If I have Cassandra already running on my machine, how do I configure sstableloader to run on a different IP (127.0.0.2). Also, does that mean in order to use sstableloader on the same machine as an running Cassandra node, I have to have two NIC cards?
I looked around for any info about how to configure and run sstableloader, but other than what the cmdline spits out I cant find anything. Are there any examples or best practices? Is it designed to be run on a machine that isn't running a cassandra node?
