You must select Start Recovery in the Grid Manager to configure an appliance Storage Node as a replacement for the failed node.

Before you begin
Steps
  1. From the Grid Manager, select Maintenance > Tasks > Node recovery.

  2. 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.

  3. Enter the Provisioning passphrase.

  4. Select Start recovery.

  5. Monitor the progress of the recovery in the Recovering Grid Node table.

Note

At any point during the recovery, you can select 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 appliance node to a pre-installed state by running sgareinstall on the node.
