Would be nice to update this so it doesn't confuse a Cassandra newbie. The doc says to create a KS like so:</p> <p>[default@unknown] create keyspace twissandra with replication_factor=1<br /> and placement_strategy='org.apache.cassandra.locator.SimpleStrategy';</p> <p>But actually, that command gives this error:<br /> No enum const class org.apache.cassandra.cli.CliClient$AddKeyspaceArgument.REPLICATION_FACTOR</p> <p>The actual syntax to create the keyspace should be:<br /> create keyspace twissandra with placement_strategy = 'org.apache.cassandra.locator.SimpleStrategy' and strategy_options = [{replication_factor:1}];</p> <p>Document to update:<br /> <a href="http://www.datastax.com/docs/0.8/cli/using_cli" rel="nofollow">http://www.datastax.com/docs/0.8/cli/using_cli</a> </p>
