I have three servers in a cluster, moe, larry, curly in production. They have been working fine, but after a reboot curly lxc wont work. lxc list never finishes. lxc list on the other two gives Failed to fetch http://unix.socket/1.0: 500 Internal Server Error. Which basically means I have three servers with hundreds of websites and applications at risk of being lost.
I don’t understand why if one server goes down, it all stops working. What is the point. Do I need a fourth server?
So I would normally, blow away the bad server and reinstall from backup. The weird part is that the backup files in both a separate drive and the ones I copy it is too are also not showing. It is like the Zpool is corrupt, but why would that affect file outside of it. I know this doesn’t not make sense. I copied /var/lib/lxd to a separate drive and they are their but files in container is missing.
Anyway, so i need to either restart LXD cluster getting Curly back online or somehow get data out of it and reestablish it again.
Any and all help is welcomed, this basically ruined my Sunday and perhaps the rest of the week. And I may have to shutdown cluster idea if I can’t figure this out and go back to individual lxc.
From the logs it looks like your two other nodes (larry and moe) can’t connect to each other anymore, or something like that. You’ll probably need to provide more info to debug this, I’m technically off these days but I might be able to provide you more help tomorrow.
Unless your ZFS pool(s) is/are corrupted (which would be surprising), I don’t think there’s any risk of losing your containers.
Your help is appreciated, I am techinically off too. but trying fix this before “work” tomorrow.
THis is larry lxd --group lxd -d

They seem to have same version, I am afraid of rebooting working nodes.
For anybody stumbling on this: the “Error: failed to create raft factory: failed to create bolt store for raft logs: timeout” message means that another lxd process is holding a lock on the db file. So make sure to kill any dangling lxd process and retry.
