Instead of removing the bucket, an error message would be emitted. With this enhancement, bucket index entries with a missing head object can now be removed with the ` --yes-i-really-mean-it` flag.

Description Rodrigo Capa 2025-01-23 15:40:09 UTC

Description of problem:

Unable to remove indexes of objects that were been removed by Life Cycle or Archive Zone

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
This issue is tested on Pacific, Quincy and Reef.

How reproducible:
One way is to follow the steps to reproduce stale objects on case: 2319199

The other is to create a multisite cluster and configure the secondary site as Archive Zone. More complex to replicate.


Actual results:
Expired object indexes remains listed, besides the object data doesn't exist anymore.
Those objects indexes can be removed by any means.


Expected results:
The indexes should have been removed, it's expected a tool or method to remove all those indexes.

Hello team,

this BZ was about a method for the removal of stale indexes left by bugs on previous RHCS versions, which are confirmed as resolved or verified.

Focusing in this case, how is or will be the process to remove such indexes? I don't find any information regarding it.

Could you please share the details? or current status.

Thanks,
Rodrigo
