I sheepishly must ask -- is there any way to recover a deleted RBD?

The RBD was created using the Linux 3.2 kernel client, running 0.48.1.
 Removed with "rbd rm -p rbd <name>".

I expect the answer to be no, but wanted to check for sure!

Thanks,

Travis

Short answer: no

Long answer: it may be possible if your cluster was undergoing recovery
and extra copies of objects are around, but this is unreliable since
you don't know which objects should be there due to thin-provisioning.

Fair enough, thanks for the response!
