Windows disk check found.000

[ItsHass]

Hi all,

I had abit of a disk issue - but it seems all the files have now been put into a found.000 folder, its entirely all of them, but they are not in folders organised

frustrating, if we don’t have a way to re-sort the files/folders

Buy an UPS and start a new node. (Sorting picked won’t help because there is no guarantee that those are intact pieces. Most are likely garbage)

You may try this to recover pieces:

How to get the name of a piece having its file

Wrote some Python code here to extract the path. I tested it on some of my piece files and couldn’t find one for which the computed file name was wrong, but obviously no warranties and your node might as well disqualify the moment you run this code Have fun.

You can try to modify line 77 of the python script so that the output for each file will be a copy or a move command. For example, instead of having for each file the output:
“File lost+found/#92559603 should probably go do ukfu6bhbboxilvt7jrwlqk7y2tapb5d2r2tsmj2sjxvw5qaaaaaa/y5/a7ok7l6xcujgiudtnpo6a2bnu5lptbe35je2n5khp5isi43tqq.sj1”
you will get:
“cp your_PATH_lost+found/#100010469 PATH_TO_BLOBS/pmw6tvzmf2jv6giyybmmvl4o2ahqlaldsaeha4yx74n5aaaaaaaa/7w/f2xfjrqkmlooj5sbp6hougk7jjpssdl36rxfvitanfc7xsoyaq.sj1”

After modifying the script, assign the lost+found path to the variable files_to_scan (line 8 of the script)
files_to_scan = ‘your_PATH_lost+found/*’

Run the script and redirect the output to a file:
python3 script > file.sh

Open the file.sh. Its content will be for example:

“cp your_PATH_lost+found/#124399501 PATH_TO_BLOBS/ukfu6bhbboxilvt7jrwlqk7y2tapb5d2r2tsmj2sjxvw5qaaaaaa/f7/7elfswbyhvzmtfdiqpmf6nkeiejcrnpqsah2gweltaf3oywd5a.sj1”

you would get a script for PowerShell (just use ps1 extension instead of sh) to recover pieces.
I guess you would need to change permissions for these files to match permissions of other files in the blobs folder.

I was a bit late seeing this thread, however I had the same issue and fixed it manually using the node log files…

Stop node whilst array is rebuilt or risk disqualification?

Just to update in case any one else has this issue… The chkdsk took over 3 days to run: [image] It left 1.2TB of files (approximately 10% loss) in the found.000 folder in the root of the drive. The files were still in folders… [image] As the filenames within folders are still correct I am manually restoring the folders to the blobs directory. I copy the name of a file… [image] Search the storagenode.log for the original PUT request… [image] Find the satellite ID, crossmatch it with the …
