Cassandra change replication factor hive datastore I am trying to change replication factor of HiveMetaStore but I receive this message:

cassandra@cqlsh:system&gt; alter KEYSPACE HiveMetaStore with replication = 
    {'class': 'NetworkTopologyStrategy', 'DCassandra1': 1};



  InvalidRequest: code=2200 [Invalid query] message="Unknown keyspace hivemetastore"


HiveMetaStore keyspace exists. What could be the problem?

I changed replication factor from OpsCenter and it worked.

Why was I not able to change id from cqlsh?
By Default cql will convert the table/keyspace/column name in lowercase.
If you have table/keyspace/column in uppercase you have to enclose it in double quotes.

alter KEYSPACE "HiveMetaStore" with replication = 
    {'class': 'NetworkTopologyStrategy', 'DCassandra1': 1};


Opscenter handled it for you:)

CQL UpperCase/lowercase
