Okay, in a previous post, it was stated that I could use a NetworkTopologyStrategy in a singel data centre by setting up my keyspace with:
create keyspace KeyspaceDEV with placement_strategy = 'org.apache.cassandra.locator.NetworkTopologyStrategy' and strategy_options=[{datacenter1:3}]; Whereby my understanding is that: [{datacenter1:3}] represents: - 1 Datacentre - 3 nodes in that datacentre My infrastructure team were recommended to instead of use "datacenter1" to use the second value in the IP address: x.130.x.x [{130:3}] However, when trying to access the keyspace the following error was return: "May not be enough replicas present to handle consistency level" When I rebuilt the keyspace using the "datacenter1" semantic, it worked fine. My guess is that there is some correlation between the "130" value and either the rpc_address or listen_address. Am I correct in thinking this? I don't have access to the se configurations so I'm just going out on a whim here trying to figure out why using the "130" form the IP address would cause the error. Anthony
