Recover MergerFS data after reinstallation

  • Hello, I had to re-install OMV 7 after an issue with my system. So I used the same disks at the same sata connectors but can not recover my data on mergerfs.

    My system is as follows:

    Msata for OS

    1 Tb SSD for docker files (compose, backup and data)

    mergerfs:

    1 Tb SSD

    1 Tb SSD

    2 Tb SSD


    The data on the mergerfs disks are there, I can see by the used percentage, but after I rebuild it with the same disks, I'm not able to access the data.

    What should I do? Any suggestions?


    Thanks!

  • Delete the mergerfs pool and define it again.

    A backup strategy is worthless unless you have a verified to work by testing restore strategy.

  • Define "didn't work."


    mergerfs doesn't manipulate the filesystems in the pool in any special way.


    Usage and Functionality - mergerfs


    You mount the filesystems, create the mergerfs pool, the files will be there. It's trivial to check. Open a terminal, check the list of mounts, confirm mergerfs is running, goto the mountpoint, run `ls` or similar. If as a non-root identity you don't see things but as root you do it's because your permissions are messed up.
