Additionally, replace &#8216;root&#8217; with the username of the admin account if necessary.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before starting, you have to make sure that all Ubuntu OS packages installed on the server are up to date.

So you will need to add the Cassandra repository to your system.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First, install the required dependencies with the following command:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">apt-get install apt-transport-https gnupg2 -y<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next, download and add the GPG key with the following command:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">wget -q -O - https:\/\/www.apache.org\/dist\/cassandra\/KEYS | apt-key add -<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next, add the Cassandra repository to the APT with the following command:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">sh -c 'echo \"deb http:\/\/www.apache.org\/dist\/cassandra\/debian 311x main\" &gt; \/etc\/apt\/sources.list.d\/cassandra.list'<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next, update the repository cache and install the Apache Cassandra with the following command:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">apt-get update -y\r\napt-get install cassandra -y<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once the Cassandra has been installed, verify the status of the Cassandra with the following command:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">systemctl status cassandra<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You should get the following output:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">\u25cf cassandra.service - LSB: distributed storage system for structured data\r\n     Loaded: loaded (\/etc\/init.d\/cassandra; generated)\r\n     Active: active (running) since Mon 2020-12-21 05:15:39 UTC; 4s ago\r\n       Docs: man:systemd-sysv-generator(8)\r\n      Tasks: 29 (limit: 2353)\r\n     Memory: 1.1G\r\n     CGroup: \/system.slice\/cassandra.service\r\n             \u2514\u250012029 java -Xloggc:\/var\/log\/cassandra\/gc.log -ea -XX:+UseThreadPriorities -XX:ThreadPriorityPolicy=42 -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemor&gt;\r\n\r\nDec 21 05:15:39 ubuntu2004 systemd[1]: Starting LSB: distributed storage system for structured data...\r\nDec 21 05:15:39 ubuntu2004 systemd[1]: Started LSB: distributed storage system for structured data.\r\n<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can also verify the Cassandra using the nodetool command-line utility:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">nodetool status<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You should get the following output:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\">Datacenter: datacenter1\r\n=======================\r\nStatus=Up\/Down\r\n|\/ State=Normal\/Leaving\/Joining\/Moving\r\n--  Address    Load       Tokens       Owns (effective)  Host ID                               Rack\r\nUN  127.0.0.1  70.71 KiB  256          100.0%            ba73f88d-9d00-49b7-aa50-baedb4ee0558  rack1\r\n<\/pre>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-step-4-configure-apache-cassandra\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step-4-Configure-Apache-Cassandra\"><\/span>Step 4: Configure Apache Cassandra<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By default, Apache Cassandra is configured to listen on localhost.
