ES1640dc - corrupted LUN - data recovery
Posted: Tue Sep 11, 2018 2:55 am
Hi
I have a LUN which was shared between few servers (silly me). Thankfully there were snapshots enabled, however, all of them contain partially good data.
These are vhdx files from hyper-v machine.
Is there any way of merging snapshot LUN's somehow, or accessing content of the LUN from Qnap itself in order to speed up the transfer process?
Currently the only option I came up with is to find least corrupted lun snapshot, then from other snapshots copy vhdx files. However that will involve mounting on the host and transferring the data via the host. Obviously this will slow things down a lot. I have 4 maybe 5 disk files to transfer between each other to have a complete working virtual machine. We are talking about 5-6 TB to move and the VM itself is 55TB.
