Subject: Raid Degradation best practices
Date: Fri, 06 Nov 2009 07:47:55 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4AF41AFB.3000302@gmail.com> (raw)
This morning my array lost a drive, then another. This was not due to
drive failures of hardware issues.
I did not have any data on the array so I wiped the drives and
re-created it. So far everything seems fine.
I would like to know what some of your practices are for the scenario
where you loose a drive or more on a mission critical array. I chose the
newbish route because I didn't have enough time or expertise to diagnose
the problems further. Typically this means it will happen again, and I
will still be unprepared.
Would appreciate your input, thanks.
