Gluster users - Dec 2014 - Folder disappeared on volume, but exists on bricks.

My first approach would be taking the files from the bricks and copying
them back to the volume. Have you tried that?

No, because I didn't want to move any data before I know what I'm doing
:)

Is there any way to have glusterfs re-scan its bricks and make sure all
the files that are there show up in the volume?
I wouldn't want to do a rebalance "just to try", since this volume
has
around 70 TiB.

btw: I just realized, that another folder seems to be affected, too. It
shows up, but with "holes" (103 GB in volume vs. 9 TB on bricks)


Thanks,
Pb
