Hello, Thanks for the reply.
Following your advice we took a look at system.local for seed nodes and compared that data with nodetool ring. Both sources contain the same tokens for these specific hosts. Will continue looking into system.peers. We have enabled more verbosity on the C# driver and this is the message that we get now: ControlConnection: 05/03/2020 14:28:42.346 +03:00 : Updating keyspaces metadata ControlConnection: 05/03/2020 14:28:42.377 +03:00 : Rebuilding token map ControlConnection: 05/03/2020 14:29:03.837 +03:00 : Finished building TokenMap for 7 keyspaces and 210 hosts.

We are analyzing objects that the driver initializes during the token map creation but we are yet to find that dictionary with duplicated keys. Just to note, once this new DC is added to replication python driver is unable to establish a connection either. cqlsh though, seems to be ok. It is hard to say for sure, but for now at least, this issue seems to be pointing to Cassandra.

Can you query system.local and system.peers on a seed node / contact point to see if all the node list / token info is expected. You can compare it to nodetool ring info. Not directly related: 256 vnodes is probably more than you want.

We are working towards adding new dcs into our cluster, here's the current topology: DC1 - 18 nodes DC2 - 18 nodes DC3 - 18 nodes DC4 - 18 nodes DC5 - 18 nodes Recently we introduced a new DC6 (60 nodes) into our cluster. The joining and rebuilding of DC6 went smoothly, clients are using it without issue. This is how it looked after joining DC6: DC1 - 18 nodes DC2 - 18 nodes DC3 - 18 nodes DC4 - 18 nodes DC5 - 18 nodes DC6 - 60 nodes Next we wanted to add another DC7 (also 60 nodes) making it a total of 210 nodes in the cluster, and while joining new nodes went smoothly, once we changed the replication of user defined keyspaces to include DC7, no clients were able to connect to Cassandra (regardless of which DC is being addressed). They would throw an exception that I have provided at the end of the email. Cassandra version 3.11.4. C# driver version 3.12.0. Also tested with 3.14.0. We use dc round robin policy and update ring metadata for connecting clients. Amount of vnodes per node: 256 The stack trace starts with an exception 'The source argument contains duplicate keys.'. Maybe you know what kind of data is in this dictionary? What data can be duplicated here? Clients are unable to connect until the moment we remove DC7 from replication. Once replication is adjusted to exclude DC7, clients can connect normally.
