3 node cluster is in production.  It’d difficult for me to get sign off on the 
change control to upgrade it.   The 6 node cluster is already stood up (in 
aws).  In an ideal scenario I’d just be able to bring the data over to the new 
cluster.

I'm trying to upgrade from a 3 node 1.1.9 cluster to a 6 node 1.2.18 cluster on 
ubuntu. Can sstableloader be used to stream from the existing cluster to the 
new cluster? If so, what that the suggested method? I keep getting the 
following when trying this:
http://palominodb.com/blog/2012/09/25/bulk-loading-options-cassandra

One of the caveats mentioned there is that sstableloader often does not work 
between major versions.

If I were you, I would accomplish this task by dividing it in two :

1) Upgrade my 3 node cluster from 1.1.9 to 1.2.18 via rolling 
restart/upgradesstables.
2) Expand 3 node cluster to 6 nodes

Is there a reason you are not using this process?
