Rectify

Let's rectify your data!

To rescue your data from peril, you simply command CEFS to rectify your mounted directory and your data will be recovered. There is also manual access if a more granular approach is necessary.

  1. Run a rectify in dry run mode to see what will be rectified from what point:

    cefs rectify ${CEFS_MOUNTDIR} now --dry-run -v
    
  2. Run the rectify command in one of the following methods:

    1. Automatically and immediately rectify your data:

      cefs rectify ${CEFS_MOUNTDIR} now
      
    2. Alternately, manually set up sāf points and rectify from them:

      cefs rectify ${CEFS_MOUNTDIR} memory ${RECOVERY_ID}
      cefs rectify ${CEFS_MOUNTDIR} from
      
  3. Your clean data is now available in the mounted directory!

    This should look something like the following:

    rectify now dry run

    Notice that, not only has your data been restored but also your permissions and settings.
