Aaron, Everytime after I ran the truncate I did
select count(*) from datapoints; and a non zero value was returned. I never got any errors after the truncate. All the nodes seem to be available as I was connected to all the servers via ssh and ran cassandra using ./cassandra -f I had to do some more testing so I wrote some c# to delete the rows explicitly. I am currently benchtesting our cluster so will do a truncate again after I have finished inserting data and will report my results.
