That's why, does that exist on all 3 of the new nodes?

The folder /gdbackup/GDIndexerBackups/director-services/indices/asset\_locations/3/ is accessible from all the three nodes. But I don’t see the file snapshot-snapshot-20160225162939 in the folder

Then that's the issue, where did it go? Is it on the original cluster? What sort of mounts is it, NFS etc?

It is a shared NAS storage

Well, the data is missing on the new cluster, so you will need to dig into that.

Thanks Mark, But the data you are saying is missing in backup data or in the cluster?

It's missing from the mount.
