Thank you for the replies Jonathan... Just to make sure I understand this correctly; 1) Shutdown cassandra 2) Remove the keyspace ( and its corresponding CF ) configurations in storage-conf.xml 2) Delete the Keyspace directory under the cassandra data directory 4) Restart cassandra server
Correct me if I am wrong.
