In my case all hosts were reachable and I ran nodetool ring before running the schema update. I don't think it was because of node being down. I tihnk for some reason it just took over 10 secs because I was reducing key_cache from 1M to 1000. I think it might be taking long to trim the keys hence 10 sec default may not be the right way.
