Hi, I am wondering if there is any documentation on migrating from a single node cassandra instance to a multinode cluster? My searches have been unsuccessful so far and I have had no luck playing with tools due to terse output from the tools.
I currently use a single node having data that must be retained and I want to add two nodes to create a cluster. I have tried to follow the instructions at the link below but it is unclear if it even works to go from 1 node to 2. https://docs.datastax.com/en/cassandra/2.1/cassandra/operations/ops_add_node_to_cluster_t.html Almost no data has been transferred across and nodetool status is showing that 0% of the data is owned by either node although I cannot determine what the percentages should be in the case that the configuration is intended for data redundancy.

The second node is bootstrapped and nodetool repair indicates that nothing needs to be done. Any suggestions on a path to take? I am at a loss. Thanks, Jason
