[Gluster-users] Gluster Storage platform crashed how to get the data back?

[sandeep dude]

Hi Bala,
   Thanks for the reply. Ive reinstalled the storage platform in fear of
loosing the data and now the data is being copied its working but the
problem is that what is the way if I want to just select the HDD in the
platform because by default it asks for formatting.  If im able to get
things like before then it would work like charm and i dont need to move
the data to the new drive again... please help me..

-S
