Hello,
I am using glusterfs storage and ran into a split-brain issue. One of the file affected by split-brain was dom_md/ids. In attempts to fix the split-brain issue I deleted the dom_md/ids file. Is there a method to recreate or reconstruct this file?
You can do this: 1. Put the gluster domain to maintenance (via engine) No host should access it while you reconstruct the ids file 2. Mount the gluster volume manually mkdir repair mount -t glusterfs <server>:/<path> repair/ 3. Create the file: touch repair/<sd_uuid>/dom_md/ids 4. Initialize the lockspace sanlock direct init -s <sd_uuid>:0:repair/<sd_uuid>/dom_md/ids:0 5. Unmount the gluster volume umount repair 6. Activate the gluster domain (via engine) The domain should become active after a while. David: can you confirm this is the best way to reconstruct the ids file? Nir
