linstor-provision-disk

An init container for LINSTOR satellite pods that automatically detects when a satellite's ID has changed and reinitializes the storage layer accordingly — cleaning up stale LVM physical volumes, volume groups, and logical volumes before provisioning fresh storage. This makes cluster resets on satellite nodes fully hands-off.
