Re-register an out of service node

[chafik]

Hello,

I have made by mistake an node to out of service through the GUI.
How can I re-register the node again.
When I tried to register, it shows the node is already registered

Thank you

Once you decommissioned, you cannot reuse it until it's fully expired and removed.

Attention: This action cannot be reversed and causes deletion of
data. Although this command does not delete the client node definition
until after its data expires, you cannot recommission the client node.
After you issue this command, the client node cannot access the server
and its data is not backed up. The client node is locked, and can be
unlocked only to restore files. File spaces that belong to the client
node, and the client node itself, are eventually removed.

You could try rename that node though.
rename node NODENAME NODENAME_OLD
then re-register the node again. Note that it will be treated as a new node, if you need to restore older data, you will need to point to the old node.
