I had my last data directory pointing to the same data directory. lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 Oct 30 18:37 data01 -> /data1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 Oct 30 18:37 data02 -> /data2 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 Oct 30 18:37 data03 -> /data3 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 Oct 30 18:37 data04 -> /data4 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 Oct 30 18:37 data05 -> /data5 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 Nov 8 18:46 data06 -> /data5 As you can see (not so clearly) the last link data06 is pointing to data5. Maybe Cassandra can do some basic checking (at startup) to check that the data directories aren't repeated or pointing to the same location. In any case, not a bug in the server. " =Rob
