I tried change the comment property, but this did not change either. Using the same keyspace, I created another table and executed both the gc_grace_seconds change and the comments change. Both of these successfully changed. I'm surprised to hear that other columnfamilies work in the same keyspace. In general when people end up in this case, no schema migrations work. If you do : nodetool -h localhost netstats |grep SCHEMA |sort | uniq -c | sort -n Do you see that all nodes in the cluster have the same schema version? What version of Cassandra? =Rob
