Default user name for a new Cassandra cluster

[mizunos]

Type of question

Are you asking about community best practices, how to implement a specific feature, or about general context and help around casskop ? General context of a new cassandra cluster - What is the first superuser account created in a new cluster

Question

What did you do? Follow the step by step and sucessfuly bring up a new dc1 cassandra cluster. What is the default super user name and PW for the cluster using this method. In a regular helm chart install w/o the operator, once can specify what is the first account. I do not see it in this scenario. I see a secret created for a superuser but not sure where it is added

@mizunos this is because we don’t use any cql statements on the new database created. It’s purely a default cassandra setting that you can alter by connecting using cql when the cluster is ready. The default login/password is cassandra/cassandra
