Hi Lou,
do you mean you set rpc_address (or broadcast_rpc_address) to Node_B_IP on second machine? >there would be potential database corruption, no? Well, so SSTables are immutable, it can lead to unpredictable behavior, I guess. I don't believe anybody tested such setup before. >Is there any guidance on single instance failover? I never saw one, the main Casandra idea that you build multinode cluster. Any specific reason why can't you use two nodes as single cluster?

Let's say we want to fail-over to Node B, by editing the yaml file by changing Node A to Node B. If we now (mistakenly) bring up Cassandra on Node B whilst the Cassandra on Node A is still running, there would be potential database corruption, no? Is there any guidance on single instance failover? Thanks. Lou.
