Hello Usergrid team, We were trying to scale our Usergrid Cassandra cluster - Cassandra Datastax version 2.2.6 & Usergrid version 2.2.
We were able to successfully add a cassandra node to the cluster i.e. it was automatically detected/discovered (showed up in OPSCENTER). But we noted that Read-Write requests from Usergrid were NOT being routed/serviced by the new cassandra node. The only way we could FIX this was to update the usergrid-deployment.properties file (add the new Cassandra IP) and restart TOMCAT. Post RESTART the new Cassandra node became fully operational and the Read-Write requests were being serviced by it. Questions: (1) Is it necessary to re-start TOMCAT when we scale the cassandra cluster? (2) Are we missing a setting/configuration somewhere to make this happen automatically (no restart) Please advise. Thanks Jaskaran
