Why are things going wrong when keyspaces and columnfamilies are added? In a dynamic environment ultimately this can happen at any point in time, so also when synchronizing data because of changes in the cluster configuration. Are these bugs in Cassandra? If so, have we reported them? Greetings, Marcel
