Mass Files Out of Sync - Large Blocks Inconsistency Between Versions?

Hello:

I’ve got a setup with a work Mac, two NASes and a laptop Mac in a cluster.

If I remember the setup details correctly, I initially set up the work Mac and one NAS on Syncthing, then added the NAS and the laptop. The data in question here was cloned from the work Mac to the laptop before the laptop was added to the cluster.

Now I’m seeing a large number of out of sync files on the laptop - but the files look present and correct.

Looking at the API for one of the files, I see this:

{
  "availability": [
    {
      "id": "GKRQ2C4-*******-*******-*******-*******-*******-*******-*******",
      "fromTemporary": false
    },
    {
      "id": "LE3IMUG-*******-*******-*******-*******-*******-*******-*******",
      "fromTemporary": false
    }
  ],
  "global": {
    "deleted": false,
    "ignored": false,
    "invalid": false,
    "localFlags": 0,
    "modified": "2011-11-15T18:39:36Z",
    "modifiedBy": "GKRQ2C4",
    "mustRescan": false,
    "name": "<file/path/here>",
    "noPermissions": false,
    "numBlocks": 15869,
    "permissions": "0775",
    "sequence": 35952,
    "size": 2079909726,
    "type": "FILE",
    "version": [
      "GKRQ2C4:1"
    ]
  },
  "local": {
    "deleted": false,
    "ignored": false,
    "invalid": false,
    "localFlags": 0,
    "modified": "2011-11-15T18:39:36Z",
    "modifiedBy": "RWCKRI7",
    "mustRescan": false,
    "name": "<file/path/here>",
    "noPermissions": true,
    "numBlocks": 1984,
    "sequence": 36668,
    "size": 2079909726,
    "type": "FILE",
    "version": [
      "RWCKRI7:1"
    ]
  }
}

I’m thinking that the work and laptop systems might have been setup either side of the move to large blocks - in which case, what’s the advised route to resolving this?

I’ve seen mention about nuking the database - that’s just deleting the DB folder whilst Syncthing isn’t running, isn’t it? And presumably any systems which are reporting the larger number of blocks from the API call?

Thanks!
