I finally gave up as it was supposed to be creating SimpleStrategy by default but was creating NTS by default so eventually I forced it to SimpleStrategy which did not have the issue. I never really figured out what was wrong there but my simpleStrategy correctly shows every node owns 75% which is what I would expect for RF=3.

Perhaps you used NTS with a bad DC name?

I have an existing 6 node cluster which shows 50% ownership on each node which makes sense since RF=3 on everything I have. I brought up all 4 nodes in this cluster and ran nodetool ring and it shows every node with 25%. Then, I create a keyspace and run again and it shows every node at 0% Exact output was the following…..
