After replacing an Archive Node, you must select Start Recovery in the Grid Manager to configure the new node as a replacement for the failed node.
-
You are signed in to the Grid Manager using a supported web browser.
-
You have the Maintenance or Root access permission.
-
You have the provisioning passphrase.
-
You have deployed and configured the replacement node.
-
From the Grid Manager, select MAINTENANCE > Tasks > Recovery.
-
Select the grid node you want to recover in the Pending Nodes list.
Nodes appear in the list after they fail, but you can't select a node until it has been reinstalled and is ready for recovery.
-
Enter the Provisioning Passphrase.
-
Click Start Recovery.
-
Monitor the progress of the recovery in the Recovering Grid Node table.
While the recovery procedure is running, you can click Reset to start a new recovery. A dialog box appears, indicating that the node will be left in an indeterminate state if you reset the procedure. 
If you want to retry the recovery after resetting the procedure, you must restore the node to a pre-installed state, as follows:
-
VMware: Delete the deployed virtual grid node. Then, when you are ready to restart the recovery, redeploy the node.
-
Linux: Restart the node by running this command on the Linux host:
storagegrid node force-recovery node-name
