The datastax docs to which you link are specifically for bootstrapping multiple nodes at the same time (which can, theoretically, violate consistency guarantees you may have thought you had in some cases).
If you bootstrapped a node, waited for it to complete, and then bootstrapped another, and all show up in `nodetool status`, then you’re probably in good shape. You can be extra sure by using `nodetool repair` to ensure that each ‘UP’ node has all of the data it’s meant to have. - Jeff From: Dillon Peng <pengcz.n...@gmail.com> Reply-To: "user@cassandra.apache.org" <user@cassandra.apache.org> Date: Thursday, September 1, 2016 at 8:38 PM To: "user@cassandra.apache.org" <user@cassandra.apache.org> Subject: what's next after adding 3 new nodes not as the steps of “Starting multiple new nodes”? hi, all I added 3 new nodes into my old cassandra cluster, every time I waited bootstrap on one node to complete before running bootstrap on another one, and now, I get the normal status when running nodetool status, and I can execute insert and select operations. But when I read Starting multiple new nodes of Adding nodes to an existing cluster again carefully, I found my steps were wrong, what's next should I do? How to make sure my cluster ok? Any advice will be appreciated! Dillon Peng
