I'm deploying 2 nodes at the moment using cassandra-dse on Amazon. I configured it to use EC2Snitch and configured rackdc to use us-east with rack "1".
The second node points to the first node as the seed e.g., "seeds": ["54.*.*.*"] and all of the ports are open. Any suggestions on how to track down what might trigger this problem? I'm not receiving any exceptions. -- -Richard L. Burton III @rburton
