Alright so you should be good for this update? 

What datasets were you seeing that were showing some inconsistency? In order 
for the data to load properly you need both the data in the hdf5 dirs and the 
databases (which is why you backed both them up). But if one of them is missing 
some data, then it won't load (but could appear like its there) - I'm guessing 
that is maybe what happened. 

Thanks,
