Hi,

When I set Consistency to QUORUM in cqlsh command line. It says
consistency is set to quorum.

cqlsh:testdb> CONSISTENCY QUORUM ;
Consistency level set to QUORUM.

However when I check it back using CONSISTENCY command on the prompt
it says consistency is 4. However it should be 2 as my replication
factor for the keyspace is 3.
cqlsh:testdb> CONSISTENCY ;
Current consistency level is 4.

Isn't consistency QUORUM calculated by: (replication_factor/2)+1?
Where replication_factor/2 is rounded down.

If yes then why consistency is displayed as 4, however it should be 2
(3/2 = 1.5 = 1)+1 = 2.

I am using Casssandra version 2.1.2 and cqlsh 5.0.1 and CQL spec 3.2.0


Thanks! in advance.
Nitin Padalia
