Hi, we did full restart of the cluster but nodetool status still giving incoerent info from different nodes, some nodes appers UP from a node but appers DOWN from another, and in the log as is said still having the message "received an invalid gossip generation for peer /x.x.x.x" cassandra version is 2.1.2, we want to execute the purge operation as explained here https://docs.datastax.com/en/cassandra/2.1/cassandra/operations/ops_gossip_purge.html but we don't found the peers folder, should we do it via cql deleting the peers content? should we do it for all nodes?
