title: Cassandra multinode cluster setup issue
body: <p>I am trying to setup a Cassandra multinode cluster on CentOS 7 with OpenJDK.</p>
  
  <p>I have 2 Nodes:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>node1 10.99.189.49</li>
  <li>node2 10.99.189.50</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>I have done following things till now:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Downloaded the tarball of Cassandra from PlanetCassandra site</li>
  <li>Extracted it in Documents folder.</li>
  <li>Created all the necessary directories (data/saved_cache, data/commitlog, data/data) as mentioned in the YAML file.</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>And I have made 3 changes in my conf/cassandra.yaml file as follows:</p>
  
  <p>On node 10.99.189.49:</p>
  
  <pre><code>seeds: "10.99.189.49" 
  listen_address: 10.99.189.49
  rpc_address: 10.99.189.49
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>On node 10.99.189.50:</p>
  
  <pre><code>seeds: "10.99.189.49" 
  listen_address: 10.99.189.50
  rpc_address: 10.99.189.50
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Now I run cassandra on node 10.99.189.49
  and then I run cassandra on the other node.</p>
  
  <p>Cassandra starts normally on both the nodes 
  BUT
  when I do:</p>
  
  <pre><code>bin/nodetool status
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I can see only one node in it.</p>
  
  <p>Can anyone point what I am doing wrong or missing something?</p>
