Summary: Block creating keyspace with RF > Cassandra node count
Key: CASSANDRA-16747
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-16747
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Cluster/Schema
Reporter: Tri Nguyen
Using Cassandra 3.11.10, 3 nodes cluster Cassandra allows to create a keyspace
having `replication_factor` greater than the number of available nodes.
{code:java}
-- successfully created Keyspace with RF = 3 > node count = 3
CREATE KEYSPACE mykeyspace WITH replication = {'class': 'SimpleStrategy',
'replication_factor': 5 };

Would it be OK to improve the `CREATE KEYSPACE` to block (or display warning)
when attempting to set `replication_factor` > node count?
