Hi, I have a 2 node setup on Azure (east us region) running Ubuntu server 14.04LTS. Both nodes have 8GB RAM.
One of the nodes (seed node) died with OOM - so, I am trying to add a replacement node with same configuration. The problem is this new node also keeps dying with OOM - I've restarted the cassandra service like 8-10 times hoping that it would finish the replication. But it didn't help. The one node that is still up is happily chugging along. All nodes have similar configuration - with libjna installed. Cassandra is installed from datastax's debian repo - pkg: dsc21 version 2.1.7. I started off with the default configuration - i.e. the default cassandra-env.sh - which calculates the heap size automatically (1/4 * RAM = 2GB) But, that didn't help. So, I then tried to increase the heap to 4GB manually and restarted. It still keeps crashing. Any clue as to why it's happening? Thanks, Kunal
