Accidentally Overwrote LUN While Creating New SR, Can I Recover?
Greetings,

Is it possible to recover a LUN that had VDIs on it after I've created a
new SR with that LUN and apparently overwritten the metadata of the
previous SR?

This is an iSCSI setup.

Thanks!

Lvmoiscsi?

You might see if you have a backup lvm.conf that has the metadata for the previous config and try to force load it.

Hi, Joseph. I was able to recover it by reconstructing the metadata.

Thanks!
