Hello, We are using cassandra 2.0.17 and have two logical DC having different Keyspaces but both having same logical name DC1.
we want to setup another cassandra cluster for analytics which should get data from both the above DC. if we setup the new DC with name DC2 and follow the steps https://docs.datastax.com/en/cassandra/2.0/cassandra/operations/ops_add_dc_to_cluster_t.html will it work ? I would think we would have to first change the names of existing clusters to have to different names and then go with adding another dc getting data from these? Also as soon as we add the node the data starts moving... this will all be only real time changes done to the cluster right ? we still have to do the rebuild to get the data for tokens for node in new cluster ? Thanks Anishek
