« By starting the mfsmount process with the -m (or -o mfsmeta) option
one can mount the auxiliary file system MFSMETA (which may be useful to
restore a file accidentally deleted from the MooseFS volume or to free
some space by removing a file before elapsing the quarantine time), for
example:

mfsmount -m /mnt/mfsmeta »
add -H mfsmaster_host and it works (just tested:)
Hope it helps,
