[Sheepdog] Power supply interruption crashes data stored in sheepdog

[Fernando Frediani (Qube)]

Rubens,

Do you mean you recovered it ?
What have you do to get it working again ?

Obrigado

Fernando

I have already cleaned the damaged cluster. I guess it is possible to reproduce the error, and then capture the output from collie cluster info.

Anyway, the upcoming  "collie cluster check" command is a very good news.

Sheepdog should handle the total node failure, but I think some bugs
still exist in it.  The error handling has not been tested enough.

If you have not cleaned the damaged cluster yet, can you give me the
outputs of "collie cluster info" on all the nodes?  Those info would
be helpful to find the error reason.

I'm implementing a "collie cluster check" command, which works like
fsck for Sheepdog.  This command would be helpful for recovering the
damaged cluster.


Thanks,
