Hi Andrei,
As you know, we are using Whirr for ElasticInbox
(https://github.com/elasticinbox/whirr-elasticinbox). While testing we
encountered a few minor problems which I think could be improved. Note
that we were using 0.6 (there were some strange bug in 0.7, maybe fixed
already).
Although initial_token is pre-calculated to form balanced cluster, our
tests cluster (4 nodes) was always unbalanced. There were no
initial_token specified (just default).
Second note is AWS specific - for the performance reasons it's better to
store data files on ephemeral drive. Currently data stored under default
location (/var/...)
Thanks for the great work!

Hi guys,
I just want to the let you know that Apache Whirr trunk (the upcoming
0.7.1 release) can deploy Cassandra 1.0.7 on AWS EC2 & Rackspace Cloud.
You can give it a try by running the following commands:

And the last thing we would appreciate any suggestions on improving
the deployment scripts or on improving Whirr.
Thanks,
