Then do the steps listed > in the link above. Yes, it is a 2-node cluster managed by heartbeat. Can i assume that the corruption also on the secondary node exists? I guess it is.

Not yet, i am a little bit frightened about dataloss so i ask my questions here first. Thanks @all for help Alexander Sobottka
