<div dir="ltr">Hello everyone;<div><br></div><div>First I would like to congratulate all the gluster community for such a project. I have been using gluster for a while and I am very happy with it :-)</div><div><br></div><div>
I am facing the following situation in a gluster distributed volume deploy that currently uses gluster 3.4.0 and native gluster clients.</div><div><br></div><div>For some reason, which I don't know yet, configuration files (/var/lib/glusterd/) have been damaged so the volumes config is lost but the data remains intact.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I have been advised in #gluster that I can recreate the volumes without losing the data. I have followed this procedure:</div><div><br></div><div>0.Create a backup of each brick.</div><div>1.Umounting the partitions that contain the gluster volumes.</div>
<div>2.Create the distributed volume again in the same mount point that it was previously.</div><div>3.Mount the data.</div><div>4.Start the volume.</div><div><br></div><div>Step 4 was outputing an error regarding the volume-id so I followed the instructions from Joe Julian's website: <a href="http://joejulian.name/blog/glusterfs-path-or-a-prefix-of-it-is-already-part-of-a-volume/">http://joejulian.name/blog/glusterfs-path-or-a-prefix-of-it-is-already-part-of-a-volume/</a></div>
<div><br></div><div>After a while I managed to start the volume and mount the data in my clients but I have some inconsistencies like some files are missing in some of the bricks.</div><div><br></div><div>Is there any way to make the volumes consistent again/check consistency or do I have to restore missing data?</div>
<div><br></div><div>Regards.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><div><br></div>-- <br><div dir="ltr">Diego Lendoiro <br><br><br></div>
