You can check the streaming progress with nodetool netstats. That will tell you what it thinks it is moving.
nodetool ring will also tell you what state the nodes are in. That said, this looks a little suspicious… >> INFO [StreamStage:1] 2012-04-21 11:07:45,262 StreamOut.java (line 160) >> Stream context metadata [], 0 sstables. If netstats is showing nothing could you please reply with some details of what was in the schema, and if there was *any* data at all.
