For rebuild, replace and -Dcassandra.consistent.rangemovement=false in general we currently pick the closest replica (as indicated by the Snitch) which has the range, what will often map to the same node due to the dynamic snitch, specially when N=RF. This is good for picking a node in the same DC or rack for transferring, but we can probably improve this to distribute streaming load more evenly within candidate source nodes in the same rack/DC.
Would you mind opening a ticket for improving this? 2016-06-14 17:35 GMT-03:00 Fabien Rousseau <fabifab...@gmail.com>: > We've tested with C* 2.1.14 version > Yes VNodes with 256 tokens > Once all the nodes in dc2 are added, schema is modified to have RF=3 in > dc1 and RF=3 in dc2. > Then on each nodes of dc2: > nodetool rebuild dc1 > Le 14 juin 2016 10:39, "kurt Greaves" <k...@instaclustr.com> a écrit : > >> What version of Cassandra are you using?
