[Gluster-users] Quick question regarding xfs_repair

I'm guessing since Gluster was striping across this and 3 other nodes, I'm
pretty much left with whatever data I was able to backup prior to this
happening and whatever I was lucky enough to get from the gluster system
that didn't have stripes on this node. I still haven't heard if gluster will
fail on a copy if the file could not be fully constructed from the stripes.

I suppose it's time for some diagnostics to see if the node is worth
rebuilding or I need to order anything.

Thanks Joe.

Terry

Ok, thats a hardware error.  The file system may (or may not) be intact. 
  The RAID/disk however, is probably toast.
