Thanks a lot Ben, actually I managed to make it work erasing the SimpleDB Priam uses to keeps instances... I would pulled the last commit from the repo, not sure if it helped or not.
But you message made me curious about something... How do you do to add more Cassandra nodes on the fly? Just update the autoscale properties? I saw instaclustr.com changes the instance type as the number of nodes increase (not sure why the price also becomes higher per instance in this case), I am guessing priam use the data backed up to S3 to restore a node data in another instance, right?
