then nodetool shows the node is leaving.... nodetool -h reagon ring Address Status State Load Owns Token 84944475733633104818662955375549269696 node3 Up Normal 13.18 GB 81.09% 52773518586096316348543097376923124102 node3 Up Normal 22.85 GB 10.48% 70597222385644499881390884416714081360 node3 Up Leaving 25.44 GB 8.43% 84944475733633104818662955375549269696 the log didn't show any error message neither anything abnormal. is there something wrong?
