Thanks all - I'll take a look at Ansible.  Back in my Hadoop days, we would use Cloudera manager (course that now costs $). Sounds like we need a new open source project!  :)

We use Ansible to manage a fairly large (200+ nodes) cluster. We created our own Ansible playbooks for common tasks, such as rolling restart. We also use Cassandra Reaper for scheduling and running repairs on the same cluster. We occasionally also use pssh (parallel SSH) for inspecting the logs or configurations on selected nodes. Running pssh on very larger number of servers is obviously not practical due the the available screen space constraint.

Hi all - curious what tools are folks using to manage large Cassandra clusters?  For example, to do tasks such as nodetool cleanup after a node or nodes are added to the cluster, or simply rolling start/stops after an update to the config or a new version?
We've used puppet before; is that what other folks are using?
Thanks for any suggestions.
