I am very new to cassandra. Just started exploring. I am running a single node cassandra server & facing a problem in seeing status of the cassandra using nodetool command.
i have hostname configured on my VM as myMachineIP cass1 in /etc/hosts and i configured my cassandra_instal_path/conf/cassandra.yaml file with listen_address, rpc_address as localhost and clustername as casscluster (also tried with my hostname which is cass1 as listen_address/rpc_address) Nut not sure what is the reason why i am not able to get statususing nodetool command. $ nodetool Cannot resolve '127.0.0.1': unknown host $ nodetool -host 127.0.0.1 Cannot resolve '127.0.0.1': unknown host $ nodetool -host cass1 Cannot resolve 'cass1': unknown host But i am able to connect to cassandra-cli console output: Connected to: "casscluster" on 127.0.0.1/9160 Welcome to Cassandra CLI version 1.2.8 Type 'help;' or '?' for help. Type 'quit;' or 'exit;' to quit. my /etc/hosts looks like: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4 localhost cass1 ::1 localhost.localdomain localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6 localhost cass1 [myMachineIP] cass1 what could be the reason why i am not able to run nodetool? Please help.
