Clearly not, hence why the read/write check was implemented to check whether there is a mount issue. You can keep ignoring your part in why that system didn’t work for you, but you’re not getting better answers. For the node, it looked like your HDD was available, yet all the data was gone. Do you expect to not be disqualified if all data is suddenly gone while the HDD seems to be accessible?
It does! But you broke that check with your setup.
Because if you allow missing data or unreadable data to pass the audit system, it opens the door to manipulating it to get away with actual data loss.
Nope, because the node never went offline, since the storage location was readable, just the blobs weren’t.
