Hi, I tried to add a node a few days ago and it failed. I finally made it work with an other node but now when I describe cluster on cli I got this :
Cluster Information: Snitch: org.apache.cassandra.locator.Ec2Snitch Partitioner: org.apache.cassandra.dht.RandomPartitioner Schema versions: UNREACHABLE: [10.56.62.211] e7e0ec6c-616e-32e7-ae29-40eae2b82ca8: [10.59.21.241, 10.58.83.109] And nodetool ring gives me : Address DC Rack Status State Load Owns Token 85070591730234615865843651857942052864 10.59.21.241 eu-west 1b Up Normal 101.17 GB 50.00% 0 10.58.83.109 eu-west 1b Up Normal 55.27 GB 50.00% 85070591730234615865843651857942052864 The point, as you can see, is that one of my node has twice the information of the second one. I have a RF = 2 defined. My guess is that the token 0 node keep data for the unreachable node. The IP of the unreachable node doesn't belong to me anymore, I have no access to this ghost node. Does someone know how to completely remove this ghost node from my cluster ? Thank you.
