Hi,
Once the client is connected, it will automatically connect to many nodes in
the cluster. Therefore once the app is running the amount of contact points
doesn’t matter and if you have consistency level < ALL (or QUORUM where
replication factor is <= 2), your app should tolerate rolling restart ok.
That being said, you should have more than one contact point because if you
restart your application and the node indicated in contact point happens to be
down, the application cannot connect to cluster and fails. Having two contact
points is a good start.
Cheers,
Hannu
