Hi Strahil, Thanks for your help and info. I guess that just copy gluster info from the faulty server to the new server would be the easiest and should "just work". My reason for reuse of FQDN is that we have a naming system that tells us more about a server if you know how the system is built up, but as you say it is much simpler and better to replace the faulty server with a server with a different name. For now I manage to heal the faulty sectors on disk so my OS was happy again. Have to keep my eyes on that server as you never know if it was a temporary hick-up or if the disk has some faulty sectors. Thanks for the help, now I have a plan if the disk missbehaves again!!
