You will have to restore the data from the automatically created snapshot. 1) echo "DESCRIBE KEYSPACE <keyspace_name>;" | cqlsh > keyspace_name.schema.cqlsh 2) DROP KEYSPACE <keyspace_name>; 3) restore keyspace's data from the snapshots created automatically when you DROP 4) use the contents of keyspace_name.schema.cqlsh to re-create your schema 5) rolling restart of all nodes (or use "nodetool refresh") =Rob
