Can you still acces the data? Then backup-up it first manually please,
to avoid crying:

truncate -s 200G container.luks
losetup /dev/loop42 container.luks
cryptsetup luksFormat /dev/loop42
cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/loop42 BACKUP
mkfs.ext2 /dev/mapper/BACKUP
mkdir /backup
mount /dev/mappper/BACKUP /backup
rsync -auv /source/   /backup/subdir/

Then umount, cryptsetup luksClose, and losetup -f /dev/loop42.

After that, I would probably setup the qubes again, but I am not expert
on that. Bernhard
