Reviewing the Cassandra database status

Last Updated : Jun 10, 2026 |

About this task

You can use the nodetool command to review the following information about the Cassandra database:

  • The status of each Cassandra node.

  • The list of Cassandra datacenters.

For example, you can review the Cassandra status after creating a new datacenter to ensure that the datacenter is created successfully.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the Avaya Aura® Device Services CLI as an administrator.
  2. Run the following command: 
    nodetool status

    Avaya Aura® Device Services displays information about the Cassandra database.

Example

The following is an example of the command output for an Avaya Aura® Device Services cluster with two Cassandra datacenters: dc1 and dc2.
