Recovering from kopia internal files data loss

Hi,

I recently lost the file in the below log message due to data corruption.

ERROR error copying blobs: error copying pde907b99d005cd02aa15b83cdf736540-s0627a4e296b765e0132: error reading blob 'pde907b99d005cd02aa15b83cdf736540-s0627a4e296b765e0132' from source: unable to complete GetBlobFromPath:/media/storage1/kopia/pde/907/b99d005cd02aa15b83cdf736540-s0627a4e296b765e0132.f despite 10 retries: read /media/storage1/kopia/pde/907/b99d005cd02aa15b83cdf736540-s0627a4e296b765e0132.f: input/output error

I’ve fixed the underlying disk issue and recovered 99.8% of the affected file, but am now wanting to ensure the future integrity of the kopia repository.

How can I:

  • figure out what losing that file affects
  • “heal” the repository so that I don’t encounter an issue caused by that partially restored file in future - e.g. Can I recreate that file if I still have source data / expunge it so kopia knows that data does not exist anymore and rebacks up from source.

Thanks!

Martin
