[jira] Commented: (CASSANDRA-1001) Improve messaging and reduce barrier to entry post CASSANDRA-44

["Stu Hood (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-1001?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12890855#action_12890855 ] 

Stu Hood commented on CASSANDRA-1001:
-------------------------------------

> let's expose StorageService.loadSchemaFromYAML in nodetool and call this good
Also, naming it something that implies an upgrade would be helpful: CASSANDRA-1237 would like to hook into this upgrade process, and it isn't really Yaml related.

> As seen on the mailinglist and from own experience the CASSANDRA-44 changes make it slightly confusing for a first time user to get his first Cassandra instance up and running. We should reduce the risk of turning away potential users.
> * Improve our messaging (README, error msg, NEWS etc). 
> * Make it much easier to load/create a schema after a first startup. Starting jconsole and digging around for some obscure loading method is confusing and time consuming, we should provide a simple tool to do so.
