How to rescan database storage index?

[OneFiveFour]

Hi, I fucked up and deleted/moved a few files directly in my storage folder instead via the WebUI. Now I learned that this is not good as the metadata in the database is not updated automatically. Luckily, I don't have much stored yet on my self-hosted instance. So my question is, if there is a way to let OpenCloud rebuild the database from the files as they are now within the storage folder?
I am using docker compose btw.
So worst case scenario would be to backup the current status of the storage folder, create a completley new container and re-upload everything - this time using the WebUI only.

There is no database. The storage is the source of truth for the posixfs and decomposedFS.

If you are using the decomposedS3 driver, blobs are in the s3 server and the metadata is on the decomposedFS.

Hmm okay, but why did I run into problems after moving files directly in the file system instead via the WebUI? Shouldnt this be no issue if the storage is the SPOT?

After doing so, I wass unable to upload files into the regarding directories anymore. The container log spit out lines like:

ERR error doing PATCH request to data gateway | service=ocdav name=eu.opencloud.web.ocdav traceid=f655efc769c563127c4f5839b8071940 request-id=b52a6ac5-a266-4cfd-b341-f3c795c1314f spaceid= path=/10 Persönliches/30 Uni filename=Facharbeit.doc error=Patch "https://": context canceled line=github.com/opencloud-eu/reva/[email protected]/internal/http/services/owncloud/ocdav/tus.go:299

fyi, I created a new instance of the docker container and started from scratch. It'working again, but I do not dare anymore to fiddle directly in the storage folders.

Here you find all information about the POSIX driver https://docs.opencloud.eu/docs/admin/configuration/storage/storage-posix

It all depends on your configuration.

Where can we do/add the configuraton to enable the "Collaborative Mode" of the storage, as if i understand that will enable the external/offline manipulation of files directly on the Fileserver which OpenCloud would be able to sync up in real time (understand the system requirements).

Secondly, is there a possibility to change this b/w the two modes i.e. Collaborative <> Non-Collaborative ...?

The use case where i think would be useful is initial Upload of a lot of files (e.g. in my case i am planning a migration from NextCloud; now the files structure is already set and its a lot...via the UI traditional way it would be very slow. So move the files in traditional way...enable teh collaborative mode for Open cloud to index all files and then we could switch back to non-colaborative).
