sorry for the barrage of questions.... but I'm having trouble with the
nodetool remove phase.
[root@cassandra01 ~]# nodetool removetoken -h 10.10.1.68
-9208584805646615844
Gives me a unix usage message. As in:
[root@cassandra01 ~]# nodetool removetoken -h 107.170.178.68
-9208584805646615844 | head -5
Unrecognized option: -9208584805646615844
usage: java org.apache.cassandra.tools.NodeCmd --host <arg> <command>
-a,--include-all-sstables includes sstables that are already on the
most recent version during upgradesstables
-c,--compact print histograms in a more compact format
I think the problem is that the bash environment is getting confused by the
minus sign in front of the token. But that is the token and the minus sign
is integral to it. I've even tried quoting it with both single quotes and
double quotes to no avail. I still get the same usage message.
Can someone please help with the right syntax here?
Thanks
Tim
