I'm a little bit confused on why the nodetool utility has a decommission and a removenode command. I speculate that decommission command just informs the other nodes that I'm going offline and does not move the data off that node. Whereas removenode resync's the data/tokens to the other nodes. Although maybe I'm way off.
In short, I'm trying to remove a node and want to know the a good safe way to make sure its tokens are moved to other nodes. I will note that the other nodes should already have the data, but I always prefer the safest way to insure data is not lost. --Frank Stutz --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information transmitted in this email is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed, and may contain material confidential to Xoom Corporation, and/or its subsidiary, buyindiaonline.com Inc.
