Jeremiah Jordan commented on CASSANDRA-12629:
---------------------------------------------
AllStrategy is actually bad to use for this. Auth caches stuff to make the
queries faster, and if you do login with the default Cassandra user that uses
QUORUM then you will rarely succeed at logging in if you have a ton of nodes.
There is a reason DataStax never contributed their EverywhereStrategy to OSS,
it is very easy to screw yourself with it.

> When adding a new DC, keyspaces must be manually updated to replicate to the
> new DC. This is problematic for system_auth, as it cannot achieve LOCAL_ONE
> consistency (for a non-cassandra user), until its replication options have
> been updated on an existing node.
> Ideally, system_auth could be set to an "All Nodes strategy" that will
> replicate it to all nodes, as they join the cluster. It also removes the
> need to update the replication factor for system_auth when adding nodes to
> the cluster to keep with the recommendation of RF=number of nodes (at least
> for small clusters).
