Is the clearer interpretation of this statement (in conf/datacenters.properties) given anywhere else?
# The sum of all the datacenter replication factor values should equal # the replication factor of the keyspace (i.e. sum(dc_rf) = RF) # keyspace\:datacenter=replication factor Keyspace1\:DC1=3 Keyspace1\:DC2=2 Keyspace1\:DC3=1 Does the above example configuration imply that Keyspace1 has a RF of 6, and that of these 3 will go to DC1, 2 to DC2 and 1 to DC3? What will happen if datacenters.properties and cassandra-rack.properties are simply empty? - m.
