Hi Anshu, To add to Erick's comment, remember to remove the *replace_address* method from the *cassandra-env.sh* file once the node has rejoined successfully. The node will fail the next restart otherwise.
Alternatively, use the *replace_address_first_boot* method which works exactly the same way as *replace_address* the only difference is there is no need to remove it from the *cassandra-env.sh* file.
