Hi @preethikoluvaiya23_193353,

you are facing this problem, because you run nodetool from the node1 folder, for node1. The connection is refused, because node1 is not running. You can see this from the status output that you obtained on node2.

I am not sure where you are in the exercises and what brought you to this situation that node2 is up, but not node1. To bring up both nodes, I would go back to the ring exercises (exercise 7). Delete the node1 and node2 folders and start again, follow the instructions in the exercise sheet.

Also, have a look at the answer in this post, it explains how nodetool is set up to work with several nodes on the single VM.

Let us know if you need more help to get this going.
