Hi, Rule of thumb, you should identify two servers in the cluster to be your seed nodes. And all the servers should point to these two seeds..
You should bring up the seed nodes first with autobootstrap set to false.. All other nodes should be added to the ring with autobootstrap=true and pointing to the same seed nodes. -indra On Mon, Aug 8, 2011 at 8:46 PM, Selva Kumar <wwgse...@yahoo.com> wrote: > We have a 5 node Cassandra cluster.
