I upgraded to 1.0.6 to 1.1.0, and I noticed the effective ownership report changed.
I have a 3-node cluster, with evenly divided tokens and RF=2. The node tool report on 1.0.6 was: 33.33% 0 33.33% 56713727820156410577229101238628035243 33.33% 113427455640312821154458202477256070485 Under 1.1.0 it is 66.67% 0 66.67% 56713727820156410577229101238628035243 66.67% 113427455640312821154458202477256070485 Does the updated reporting in 1.1.0 include the replicated data and before it didn't? As long as I'm posting, I'll report other anomalies that I witnessed but overcame. I eventually gave up trying to do a live rolling update because it complained certain column families didn't exist. Like this: This doesn't appear to be any CF I am using.

Although I know it -can- work. It worked at least once, but I had to rollback to 1.0.6 though, because I found 1.1.0 was using the new SnappyCompression. But my target OS is Solaris, and there's only 3 included libraries in the jar for SnappyCompression - Solaris not included. So I had to update all my column family creation code to explicitly set compression to the previous JavaDeflate default. That new default was annoying. Ron
