[ovirt-users] hosted-engine volume removed 3 bricks (replica 3) out of 12 bricks, now I cant start hosted-engine vm

Hi, I tried removing a replica 3 brick from a distributed replicated volume which holds the ovirt hosted-engine VM. As soon as I hit commit the VM went into pause, I tried to recover the volume ID "daa292aa-be5c-426e-b124-64263bf8a3ee" from the remvoed bricks and now I am able to do a "hosted-engine --vm-status Error I see in the logs: --------------------------------- MainThread::WARNING::2021-04-14 17:26:12,348::storage_broker::97::ovirt_hosted_engine_ha.broker.storage_broker.StorageBroker::(__init__) Can't connect vdsm storage: Command Image.prepare with args {'imageID': '9feffcfa-6af2-4de3-b7d8-e57b84d56003', 'storagepoolID': '00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000', 'volumeID': 'daa292aa-be5c-426e-b124-64263bf8a3ee', 'storagedomainID': '8db17b28-ecbb-4853-8a90-6ed2f69301eb'} failed: (code=201, message=Volume does not exist: (u'daa292aa-be5c-426e-b124-64263bf8a3ee',)) --------------------------------- on the following mount I see the volumeID twice: ------------------------ [root@vmm10 images]# find /rhev/data-center/mnt/glusterSD/192.168.0.4\:_engine/ -name "daa292aa-be5c-426e-b124-64263bf8a3ee" /rhev/data-center/mnt/glusterSD/192.168.0.4:_engine/8db17b28-ecbb-4853-8a90-6ed2f69301eb/images/9feffcfa-6af2-4de3-b7d8-e57b84d56003/daa292aa-be5c-426e-b124-64263bf8a3ee /rhev/data-center/mnt/glusterSD/192.168.0.4:_engine/8db17b28-ecbb-4853-8a90-6ed2f69301eb/images/9feffcfa-6af2-4de3-b7d8-e57b84d56003/daa292aa-be5c-426e-b124-64263bf8a3ee [root@vmm10 9feffcfa-6af2-4de3-b7d8-e57b84d56003]# ls -lh total 131M -rw-rw----. 1 vdsm kvm 64M Apr 14 19:40 daa292aa-be5c-426e-b124-64263bf8a3ee -rw-rw----. 1 vdsm kvm 64M Apr 14 19:40 daa292aa-be5c-426e-b124-64263bf8a3ee -rw-rw----. 1 vdsm kvm 1.0M Jul 1 2020 daa292aa-be5c-426e-b124-64263bf8a3ee.lease -rw-rw----. 1 vdsm kvm 1.0M Jul 1 2020 daa292aa-be5c-426e-b124-64263bf8a3ee.lease -rw-r--r--. 1 vdsm kvm 329 Jul 1 2020 daa292aa-be5c-426e-b124-64263bf8a3ee.meta -rw-r--r--. 1 vdsm kvm 329 Jul 1 2020 daa292aa-be5c-426e-b124-64263bf8a3ee.meta Any ideas on how to recover ?
