Re: Cassandra 1.2.9 cluster with vnodes is heavily unbalanced.

Hi Richard, This is a brand new cluster which started with num_tokens =256 on first boot and chose random tokens. The attached ring status is after data is loaded into the cluster for the first time using sdtableloader and remains that way even after Cassandra is restarted. Thanks, Suruchi

Hi Robert, I downloaded apache-cassandra-1.2.9.tar.gz from http://cassandra.apache.org/download/ ( http://apache.mirrors.tds.net/cassandra/1.2.9/apache-cassandra-1.2.9-bin.tar.gz) and installed it on the individual nodes of the cassandra cluster. Thanks, Suruchi On Thu, Sep 19, 2013 at 12:35 PM,
