Hi Daniel, In my experience when a node shows DN and then comes back up by itself that sounds some sort of gc pause (especially if nodtool status when run from the "DN" node itself shows it is up-- assuming there isn't a spotty network issue). Perhaps I missed this info due to length of thread

Arindam, What can you share regarding the source from which you are importing data? Is it a separate cassandra cluster? If so, how many nodes and datacenters? What is RF (replication factor) of source cluster? How certain are you that the rows indeed exist in the set of sstables which you are

Along the lines of what Ben and Bryan suggested, what are you using to verify ports are open? If you do something like: node1$ nc -zv node2 9042 node2$ nc -zv node1 9042 does it succeed from both nodes? Does the first node 'know' that it is a seed? i.e. do you have first node listed in its own

To elaborate on what Robert said, I think with most things technology related, the answer with these sorts of questions (i.e. "ideal settings") is usually "it depends." Remember that technology is a tool that we use to accomplish something we want. It's just a mechanism that we as humans use to

Yes, you can examine the actual sstables in your cassandra data dir. That will tell you what version sstables you have on that node. You can refer to this link: http://www.bajb.net/2013/03/cassandra-sstable-format-version-numbers/ which I found via google search phrase "sstable versions" to see
