HI Marc, Appreciate your prompt response.
Yes we are starting datacenter B from scratch. We tried using cluster name change on side B and it works but our requirement says we can not change cluster name because during our product's major or patch release, the scripts expect cluster name to be the same. . On datacenter B , we are changing the seeds nodes. On datacenter A , we are changing the seeds nodes in cassandra.yml but that will be picked up during cassandra restart only but we can not have downtime for datacenter A. It has to be up all the time.

On which ever data center is starting from scratch (I think > it's B in your case), you may want to also change the cluster name. > > Best, > *Marc Selwan | *DataStax *| *PM, Server Team *|* *(925) 413-7079* *|* > Twitter <https://twitter.com/MarcSelwan> > > * Quick links | *DataStax <http://www.datastax.com> *| *Training > <http://www.academy.datastax.com> *| *Documentation > <http://www.datastax.com/documentation/getting_started/doc/getting_started/gettingStartedIntro_r.html> > *| *Downloads <http://www.datastax.com/download> > > > > On Mon, Apr 22, 2019 at 3:38 PM Kunal <kunal.v...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> Hi Friends, >> >> I need small help in unpairing two datacenters. >> We have 2 datacenters (say A and B ) with 3 nodes in each datacenter.
