In a Cassandra cluster, what is the consequence of setting the replication factor higher than the number of nodes?

Potential data loss due to insufficient nodes to hold replicas.

Increased data redundancy without any issues.

Improved read performance due to more replicas.

Automatic scaling of nodes to accommodate the replication factor.

None

If the replication factor is set higher than the number of nodes, Cassandra cannot store the required number of replicas, leading to potential data loss.

Which of the following is a potential downside of using a virtual node (vnode) configuration in Cassandra?

Reduced fault tolerance due to fewer partitions.

Increased risk of data loss during node failures.

Difficulty in scaling the cluster horizontally.

Increased complexity in node management.

None

While vnodes simplify data distribution and improve fault tolerance, they can increase the complexity of node management due to the larger number of partitions.
