    Was testing on a VM with less space than I expected. Node cleanly shutdown due to disk space low, but after resizing disk larger and restarting, it insisted on a reindex.

    -prune=550

    What is the error message that prompts the reindex? checkblock, leveldb, ... ?

    I'm currently trying to reproduce, what does prune option mean? Have you executed it after you resized your disk or was your node running the entire time with -prune=550?

    It was -prune=550 the entire time. After the clean out-of-space shutdown, the VM itself was rebooted to make the virtual disk larger.
