Fixing Buckets in a Cluster

I have 84 buckets that are in need of fixing.

The fix-up categories are:

data_safety
replication_factor
search_factor

The reason for the fix up seem to be related to some multi-site clustering configuration I was testing out earlier.

missing={ site2:2 } enough star targets=1

I have since changed the cluster configuration to single site. How do I fix those buckets?

after pulling the multi-site config out and confirming it's gone, did you restart the cluster? that would be a good place to start.

I would 1st restart the CM, then rolling-restart the peers and see if the issue was just a "stuck" config.

What would be the official method of verifying that the cluster is no longer running in multi-site mode? I am going based on the clustering view of the cluster master.
