Hi I will try to check out 3.0.0 on a different system. I now see that self heal works if i try to self heal the missing file directly instead of self healing the folder containing the missing file. E.g. ls -lR mymissingfile This will bring the file back. ls -lR myfolder This will not bring the file back. It is still a big hassle to locate the missing files and run individual commands to fix these rather than just one self heal command across the entire dfs.
