[Users] Old storage domain ID left behind in master storage domain's metadata

[Gadi Ickowicz]

I am not really sure what the recommended way is (adding Nir Soffer, hopefully he can help or point us to the right person).
Maybe you can try manually deactivating and detaching the domains from the pool using vdsClient on the SPM host
(for each of the domains):

deactivateStorageDomain <domainID> <poolID> 
detachStorageDomain <domainID> <poolID> 


if you have vdsm configured for secure connection (default) then you can ssh to the host and run the following command: vdsClient -s 0 [commands from above].
Otherwise you don't need the -s.

I guess you already have the domainID (VG name) and the poolID (from the previous mails you sent). Not sure if this is the correct way to solve this problem - Nir?

Thanks! Unfortunately I have some production loads already and starting
over would be tough. Any pointers on how the metadata can be fixed?

Looks like those logs are rotated away already.
