# R630-01 Container Restoration Status

**Date:** January 6, 2026  
**Status:** ⚠️ **VOLUMES CREATED - BACKUPS NEEDED FOR DATA RESTORATION**

---

## Summary

All container volumes have been successfully recreated. However, containers cannot start because volumes are empty and need filesystems. Backups are required to restore data, or containers must be recreated from templates.

---

## Current Status

### ✅ Completed
1. **RAID 10 Expanded** - 6 disks, ~700GB capacity
2. **Thin Pools Created** - thin1 (208GB) and data (200GB)
3. **Volumes Recreated** - 34 container volumes created
4. **Configurations Preserved** - All container configs intact

### ⚠️ Issue
- **Volumes are Empty** - No filesystems on volumes
- **Containers Cannot Start** - Need filesystems or backups
- **Data Missing** - All container data was lost

---

## Restoration Options

### Option 1: Restore from Backups (Recommended)

If backups exist, restore containers:

```bash
# Copy backup from another node
scp root@ml110:/var/lib/vz/dump/vzdump-lxc-106-*.tar.gz /var/lib/vz/dump/

# Restore container
pct restore 106 /var/lib/vz/dump/vzdump-lxc-106-*.tar.gz --storage data

# Start container
pct start 106
```

### Option 2: Recreate from Templates

If backups don't exist, recreate containers from templates:

```bash
# Delete empty container
pct destroy 106

# Recreate from template
pct create 106 /var/lib/vz/template/cache/ubuntu-22.04-standard_22.04-1_amd64.tar.zst \
  --storage data --rootfs data:10 --hostname redis-rpc-translator \
  --memory 512 --swap 512 --cores 2 --net0 name=eth0,bridge=vmbr0

# Restore configuration
# (Copy network, mount points, etc. from old config)
```

### Option 3: Initialize Empty Volumes

If you want to keep volumes but initialize filesystems:

```bash
# This is complex and not recommended
# Better to restore from backup or recreate container
```

## Next Steps

1. **Search for Backups:**
   - Check all nodes for backups matching container VMIDs
   - Check external backup locations
   - Check Proxmox Backup Server if configured

2. **If Backups Found:**
   - Copy backups to r630-01
   - Restore each container using `pct restore`
   - Start containers and verify

3. **If No Backups:**
   - Recreate containers from templates
   - Restore configurations manually
   - Reinstall applications
   - Restore data from other sources
