<p style="margin:0in;font-family:Calibri;font-size:11.0pt">We had
a machine with 2 hardware raid drives/partitions<span
style="mso-spacerun:yes">
</span>combined into a single gluster drive. It was running
Centos 6.7 and gluster 3.5? at time of OS disk crash. The 2 raid
disks that made up the gluster bricks were not affected by OS
reinstall.</p>
<p style="margin:0in;font-family:Calibri;font-size:11.0pt">We had
to reinstall Centos 6.7 and glusterfs on that machine, I
installed Gluster 3.3.1 to be compatible with other machines
running gluster at the site. I am able to mount both xfs disks
and browse all files. I am able to create the gluster
distributed (not replicated) volume, and start it, however I am
unable to browse to it.</p>

this is a distributed volume, can I delete the gluster volume,
delete the .glusterfs directory on each disk and recreate the

you give me correct procedure to recover?</p>
