Replacing MS with Cassandra Authentication Enabled

Not applicable

We had a question about replacing/adding an Management Server to an environment with Cassandra authentication enabled. In our current planet, we install all components (DS, RMP, MS, etc) without cass authentication. After nodes are installed and running properly, we go back and enable Cassandra authentication and change the default username/password. This involves running the command update-cass-pwd-in-config.sh on the nodes. This process has been working well for us.

We wanted to create a script to replace a bad MS in the event of a failure. The addition would occur in an established environment (orgs, environments, proxies deployed). We tried it out following the steps in the Operations Guide and hit an issue during the installation (apigee-setup.sh). After installation, it appears the ms comes up and attempts to connect to Cassandra. Since Cassandra auth is not configured, we see a lot of errors in the ms startup log.

We wanted to know if there is a way to configure the MS with Cassandra credentials before it starting or an alternative way. Thanks in advance,
