If you just had a single active MDS, then you can probably get back to a working state by just doing an "fs new" pointing at your existing pools, followed by an "fs reset" to make it skip the "creating" phase. Make sure you do not have any MDS daemons running until after you have done the fs reset. If you had multiple active MDS daemons, then you would need to use the disaster recovery tools to try and salvage their metadata before resetting the mds map.
