I will try a rolling restart to see whether that helps. The replacement node is pingable from other cassandra nodes. I also was able to telnet to the storage port (7000) of the replacement node as well from another node. cqlsh doesn't work on the new node. When does gossip settle?
Is there anyway to force the node to join the ring? -Mir On Thu, Apr 21, 2016 at 4:34 PM, Anubhav Kale <anubhav.k...@microsoft.com> wrote: > Reusing the bootstrapping node could have caused this, but hard to tell. > Since you have only 7 nodes, have you tried doing a few rolling restarts of > all nodes to let gossip settle ?
