So we migrated a number of VMs from a small Gluster 2+1A volume to a
newer cluster.
Then a few days later the client said he wanted an old forgotten file
that had been left behind on the the deprecated system.
However the arbiter and one of the brick nodes had been scraped, leaving
only a single gluster node.
The volume I need uses shards so I am not excited about having to piece
it back together.
I powered it up the single node and tried to mount the volume and of
course it refused to mount due to quorum and gluster volume status shows
the volume offline
In the past I had worked around this issue by disabling quorum, but that
was years ago, so I googled it and found list messages suggesting the
following:
gluster volume set VOL cluster.quorum-type none
gluster volume set VOL cluster.server-quorum-type none
However, the gluster 6.9 system refuses to accept those set commands due
to the quorum and spits out the set failed error.
So in modern Gluster, what is the preferred method for starting and
mounting a single node/volume that was once part of a actual 3 node
cluster?
Thanks.
