Replacing a dead seed node
Steps to replace a seed node.
Steps to replace a seed node.
Because Cassandra doesn't allow a seed node to be bootstrap, use the following steps for replacing the dead node:
Procedure
- Promote an existing node to a seed node by adding its IP address to -seeds list and remove (demote) the IP address of the dead seed node from the cassandra.yaml file for each node in the cluster.
- Replace the dead node, as described in Replacing a dead node.
