Thanks Rob, I went through the whole sequence again and now have gotten to the point of being able to try and pull in the schema, but now getting this error from the one node I'm executing on.

At the time that the nodes come up, they should have no schema other than the system columnfamilies. Only once all 3 nodes see each other should you be re-creating the schema. I'm not understanding your above sentence in light of this? =Rob
