I do see another issue that I will open a new topic for.

Let us know if you have any other questions. </p> http://www.datastax.com/support-forums/topic/opscenter-configuration-for-cassandra-using-dual-networks#post-7868 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 23:07:42 +0000 cooptron 7868@http://www.datastax.com/support-forums/ <p>tupton,</p> <p>It appears that the agents are connecting to the localhost jmx/thrift ok, but opscenter is trying to communicate to the agents on the gossip interface of our cassandra cluster instead of the thrift/rpc interface. This is causing half of the information in opscenter to be missing (storage, etc) even though all the agents are showing connected.</p> <p>here is the opscenterd log output. It SHOULD be connecting to 172.23.58.80, etc, the gossip network (172.23.1.x) is unroutable on purpose, so the opscenter server can not access it. </p> <p>From what it seems, you are gathering up the node IPs via thrift calls, but that call is using autoDiscoverHosts instead of requesting the thrift IP address of the nodes, so it is defaulting to the gossip interface.</p> <p>What I setup in opscenter for the seed addresses:<br /> 172.23.58.80<br /> 172.23.58.81<br /> 172.23.58.82</p> <p>Output from opscenterd trying to connect to an agent:</p> <p>WARN: HTTP request <a href="https://172.23.1.87:61621/cluster/datacenter?node_ip=172.23.1.81" rel="nofollow">https://172.23.1.87:61621/cluster/datacenter?node_ip=172.23.1.81</a> failed: Connection was refused by other side: 111: Connection refused. </p> http://www.datastax.com/support-forums/topic/opscenter-configuration-for-cassandra-using-dual-networks#post-7014 Thu, 18 Oct 2012 20:18:00 +0000 tupton 7014@http://www.datastax.com/support-forums/ <p>cooptron,</p> <p>The agents use localhost for JMX by default, so you shouldn't have to change anything to set up opscenter like that. If using localhost is a problem, you can set "jmx_host" in address.yaml on each node to the IP that you need. </p> http://www.datastax.com/support-forums/topic/opscenter-configuration-for-cassandra-using-dual-networks#post-7013 Thu, 18 Oct 2012 20:08:46 +0000 cooptron 7013@http://www.datastax.com/support-forums/ <p>We have our cassandra implementations setup so that nodes have two network interfaces, one for the gossip/jmx and one for thrift/app connections. How can I configure OpsCenter to use different IP addresses for thrift connections and jmx connections? As far as I can tell, you only specify a single IP address for cassandra nodes </p>
