Subject: RAID1: What happens when one half of a mirror fails?
Date: Thu, 30 Jun 2005 10:24:12 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200506301024.13126.eric@pretorious.net> (raw)
Hello, All:
I've been a bit surprised by the complete failure of our system when one half
of a mirror failed so I suppose that I should verify that I understand
RAID1's failover methodology: Is the purpose of the mirror only to preserve
the data or is it to allow the system to continue operating until a
replacement can be installed? (i.e., If one half of a mirror fails, shouldn't
the system continue operating normally?)
