Hi All,
I have 20 nodes cassandra cluster with 500gb of data and replication factor of 1. I increased the replication factor to 3 and ran nodetool repair on each node one by one as the docs says. But it takes hours for 1 node to finish repair. Is that normal or am I doing something wrong? Also, I took backup of cassandra data on each node. How do I restore the graph in a new cluster of nodes using the backup? Do I have to have the tokens range backed up as well? -Pranay
