Hi Troy,

Please check with 'riak status | egrep
"ring_creation_size|ring_num_partitions' what the different nodes believe
to be their actual ring size.

As you have already wiped (some of) the data directory on the crashed node,
you can stop this node and then it's safe to also remove the 'ring'
directory if this node reports a different ring size. Afterwards, restart
the node and attempt to join it to the rest of the cluster.

Please let me know if this solves your issue.

Kind Regards,

Magnus
