Restore cluster member to standalone server

edited Jul 27, 2022 12:49AM in Linux Operating System (MOSC) 5 commentsQuestion

We have a 3-node cluster running OEL 6.8 with clustered file systems using ocfs2.  We are wanting to restore one member as a standalone server from a complete tape backup of the same. 

On a typical standalone system I would create a basic install of the OS, install the backup client and then do a restore excluding the /proc, /sys, /dev, /tmp, /media, /lost+found directories.

Are there any other directories to exclude considering this is going from a clustered node to standalone.

Are there any gotchas I should be aware of that anyone would care to share?

Thanks,

Paul
