Correct.

Seed nodes are special in the sense that other nodes need them for
bootstrap (first startup only) and they have a special place in the Gossip
system. Odds of gossiping to a seed node are higher than other nodes, which
makes them "hubs" of gossip messaging.
Also, they do not bootstrap, so they won't
So if
1) I stop the a Cassandra node that doesn't have in the seeds IP list
itself
2) I change the cassandra.yaml of this node and I add it to the seed list
3) I restart the node
It will work completely fine and this is not even necessary.
This means that from the client driver perspective when I
I believe seed nodes are not special nodes, it's just that you choose a few
nodes from cluster that helps to bootstrap new joining nodes. You can
change Cassandra.yaml to make any other node as seed node. There's nothing
like promotion.

Hi guys!
Is there a way to promote a not seed node to a seed node?
If yes, how do you do it?
Thanks!
