[Gluster-users] returning from a failed RAID

[Jim Kinney]

All,

I had a "bad timing" event where I lost 3 drives in a RAID6 array and
the structure of all of the LVM pools and nodes was lost.

This array was 1/2 of a redundant (replica 2) gluster config (will be
adding additional 3rd soon for split brain/redundancy with failure
issues).

The failed drives were replaced, the array rebuilt, all the thin_pools
and thin_volumes recreated, LUKS recreated and now the data from the
other half has been bulk copied to the rebuilt mirror locations.

It's time to bring gluster back online. The original gluster data was
not part of the raid failure and all the names are the same (except one
LV, thin_lv, and it's thin_pool). 

soooo... Now what? At this time if I try and activate gluster it runs.
Do I need to just sit back and "let the magic happen"? What should I be
looking for to head off issues.

gain at one end you lose at the other. It's like feeding a dog on his
own tail. It won't fatten the dog.
