Yes, I altered the system_auth key space before adding the data center.

However, I suspect that the new data center did not get the system_auth data 
and therefore could not authenticate to the client. Because the new data center 
did not get the replica count by altering keyspace.

Do your clients have the 'withUsedHostsPerRemoteDc' option?
