[Lustre-discuss] Delete file entries from Metadata server

[Reto Gantenbein]

Hello everybody

We recently had a hardware defect on one of our storage arrays which  
broke the file system on this device. After running e2fsck on the file  
system, I was able to mount the device again as lustre file system.  
However, a lot of data was written into the lost+found. Now we have a  
problem, that the MDS however didn't recognize that these files are  
not available anymore and so still lists them. But then they are not  
accessible which results in a I/O-Error.

Is there a possibility to resync the MDS with the actual data on this  
OST? How can I delete these wrong entires?

Thanks a lot of your help,
Reto Gantenbein
