Hi. I’ve had success replacing the server with the same name/ip and the identical configuration of the previous server (minus the data). At that point start riak and join the node back into the cluster from the new server. This will start a bunch of transfers of meta data to get the empty node to know about the data is should have.
At that point you could wait for read repairs to eventually repopulate the node (not a great idea) or force a read repair. http://docs.basho.com/riak/latest/ops/running/recovery/repairing-partitions/ Regards, Dan From: riak-users [mailto:riak-users-boun...@lists.basho.com] On Behalf Of Edgar Veiga Sent: Tuesday, March 18, 2014 5:20 PM To: Evan Vigil-McClanahan Cc: riak-users@lists.basho.com Subject: Re: Riak node down after ssd failure Thanks Evan! Is it really imperative that the name should be != than the old one?
