Hello, When adding a new node to the cluster I need to wait for each node to receive all the data from other nodes in the cluster or just wait a few minutes before I start each node?

In Opscenter I do not see any streams... I presume that the new nodes get the data from the rest of the cluster via streams. The existing cluster has TB magnitude, and space used in the new nodes is ~90 GB. I must admit that I have restarted the new nodes several times after adding them . Does this affect boostrap? AFAIK the new nodes should start loading a part of all the data in the existing cluster. If it stays like this for a while, it sounds like your bootstraps have hung. Note that in general you should add nodes one at a time, especially if you are in a version without the fix for CASSANDRA-2434, in theory adding multiple nodes "at once" might contribute to their bootstraps hanging. Stop cassandra on the joining nodes, wipe/move aside their data directories, and try again one at a time. =Rob
