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.

The file system may (or may not) be intact. The RAID/disk however, is probably toast. -- Joseph Landman, Ph.D Founder and CEO Scalable Informatics Inc. email: landman at scalableinformatics.com web : http://scalableinformatics.com http://scalableinformatics.com/sicluster phone: +1 734 786 8423 x121 fax : +1 866 888 3112 cell : +1 734 612 4615 The information in this e-mail is intended only for the person to whom it is addressed.
