nodetool ring
Provides node status and information about the ring.
Provides node status and information about the ring as determined by the node being queried. This information provides an idea of the load balance and if any nodes are down. If the cluster is not properly configured, different nodes may show a different ring. Check that the node appears the same way in the ring. If you use virtual nodes (vnodes), use nodetool status for succinct output.
- Address
The node's URL.
- DC (datacenter)
The datacenter containing the node.
- Rack
The rack or, in the case of Amazon EC2, the availability zone of the node.
- Status - Up or Down
Indicates whether the node is functioning or not.
- State - N (normal), L (leaving), J (joining), M (moving)
The state of the node in relation to the cluster.
- Load - updates every 90 seconds
The amount of file system data under the cassandra data directory after excluding all content in the snapshots subdirectories. Because all SSTable data files are included, any data that is not cleaned up, such as TTL-expired cell or tombstoned data) is counted.
- Token
The end of the token range up to and including the value listed. For an explanation of token ranges, see .
- Owns
The percentage of the data owned by the node per datacenter times the replication factor. For example, a node can own 33% of the ring, but show100% if the replication factor is 3.
- Host ID
The network ID of the node.
Synopsis
nodetool [connection_options] ring [-r] [--] [keyspace]
| Syntax conventions | Description |
|---|---|
| UPPERCASE | Literal keyword. |
| Lowercase | Not literal. |
Italics |
Variable value. Replace with a valid option or user-defined value. |
[ ] |
Optional. Square brackets ( [ ] ) surround optional command

... |

the syntax element as often as required. |
'Literal string' |
Single quotation ( ' ) marks must surround literal strings in
CQL statements. Use single quotation marks to preserve upper case. |
{ key:value } |
Map collection. Braces ( { } ) enclose map collections or key
value pairs. A colon separates the key and the value. |
<datatype1,datatype2> |
Set, list, map, or tuple. Angle brackets ( < > ) enclose
data types in a set, list, map, or tuple. Separate the data types with a comma.
|
cql_statement; |
End CQL statement. A semicolon ( ; ) terminates all CQL
statements. |
[ -- ] |
Separate the command line options from the command arguments with two hyphens (
-- ). This syntax is useful when arguments might be mistaken for
command line options. |
' <schema> ... </schema>
' |
Search CQL only: Single quotation marks ( ' ) surround an entire
XML schema declaration. |
@xml_entity='xml_entity_type' |
Search CQL only: Identify the entity and literal value to overwrite the XML element in the schema and solrconfig files. |
