Hi

I wanted to pin the following CID `QmVc6bmT1XZmJPRZbEJEofw9HCfHRzr7GaE96Fuzpn9jgK` but unfortunately, it doesn’t continue and is stuck at 22 Nodes.

I was able to copy it to a local MFS with `ipfs files cp /ipfs/QmVc6bmT1XZmJPRZbEJEofw9HCfHRzr7GaE96Fuzpn9jgK /test` and access some file but not all of them.

Also with `ipfs dhf findprov` I couldn’t find a node which allows me to pin this hash.  
My assumption is that the pin went missing and now I am not able to pin the whole folder, because all of the files aren’t anymore available in the IPFS system.  
Am I right with this? Would be there any solution on how to resolve this?
