Thanks Erick. Just to confirm, my application connection string is using host address details and not VIP/some other load balancer in between.
So, inorder for my application to successfully establish control connection and be able to read system related tables to learn about topology automatically, is it required to give required permissions for each application user on system keyspace? Currently my application users don't have permissions on system keyspace? Is this could be the cause?
