Sorry for the odd subject but something is wrong with our cassandra ring. We have a 9 node ring as below.
N1 - UP/NORMAL N2 - UP/NORMAL N3 - UP/NORMAL N4 - UP/NORMAL N5 - UP/NORMAL N6 - UP/NORMAL N7 - UP/NORMAL N8 - UP/NORMAL N9 - UP/NORMAL Using random partitioner and simple snitch. Cassandra 1.1.6 in AWS. I added a new node with token that is exactly in middle of N6 and N7. So the ring displayed as following N1 - UP/NORMAL N2 - UP/NORMAL N3 - UP/NORMAL N4 - UP/NORMAL N5 - UP/NORMAL N6 - UP/NORMAL N6.5 - UP/JOINING N7 - UP/NORMAL N8 - UP/NORMAL N9 - UP/NORMAL I noticed that N6.5 is streaming from N1, N2, N6 and N7. I expect it to steam from (worst case) N5, N6, N7, N8. What could potentially cause the node to get confused about the ring? -- Narendra Sharma Software Engineer *http://www.aeris.com <http://www.aeris.com>* *http://narendrasharma.blogspot.com/ <http://narendrasharma.blogspot.com/>*
