Wait, his nodes are going SC, SC, AT, AT. Shouldn't they go SC, AT, SC, AT? By which I mean that if he adds another node to the ring (or lowers the replication factor), he will have a node that is under-utilized. The rings in his data centers have the tokens: SC: 0, 1 AT: 85070591730234615865843651857942052864, 85070591730234615865843651857942052865
They should be: SC: 0, 85070591730234615865843651857942052864 AT: 1, 85070591730234615865843651857942052865 Or did I forget/misread something? ----- Original Message ----- From: "aaron morton" <aa...@thelastpickle.com> To: user@cassandra.apache.org Sent: Tuesday, September 13, 2011 6:19:16 PM Subject: Re: Configuring multi DC cluster Looks good to me.

Is there anything else I should be testing/validating to make sure that things are configured correctly for NTS? Thanks Anand
