I am trying to check status of nodes using nodetool When i try nodetool status i get the following output

--  Address       Load       Tokens  Owns   Host ID                               Rack

But When i check status for a particular keyspace e.g nodetool status keyspacetest 

--  Address       Load       Tokens  Owns (effective)  Host ID                               Rack

Now from the Owns % i understand how much % of data each nodes has and sum of all that give me 100% But for Owns(Effective) the % values is very different and the sum is around 200%.

I am confused with this stats.Can anyone help me out with this.

Owns (effective) shows numbers where replication factor is taken into account.

Thus in case of nodetool status keyspacetest it shows how much data with replicas each node is holding.

In other words, in your cluster you have 5 nodes (with unevenly spreaded vnodes). 4 out of 5 nodes has effectively ~50% of existing data in that keyspace.
