I do not believe the ConsistencyLevel matters for schema changes. In recent versions request_timeout_in_ms has been replaced by N variables which allow different timeout values for different types of operations.
You seem to have both a lot of keyspaces and column families. It seems likely that you have a large cluster since you have mentioned multiple data centers. Many people have similar problems namely: the operation that changes the schema will timeout at the client level, but the cluster will eventually carry out the change. Many people seem to be writing their schema changing code to issue the request, ignore the response (in the case of timeout) and then use a command like "describe schema|cluster" to confirm the change propagation. Generally it is viewed as a annoying problem that people deal with. On Tue, Oct 25, 2016 at 4:41 PM, Jai Bheemsen Rao Dhanwada < jaibheem...@gmail.com> wrote: > 1.
