Ensure the cassandra and superuser roles are separate

AltaNivel 1Automatizadacassandra

Descripción

The default installation of Cassandra includes a superuser role named cassandra. This necessitates the creation of a separate role to be the superuser role. Runs cqlsh against CQLSH_HOST/CQLSH_PORT (default 127.0.0.1:9042) with credentials from ~/.cassandra/cqlshrc ([authentication] username/password) of a superuser. Passes when the default cassandra role is not a superuser; also review the remaining superuser roles (3.8).
