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. -- Andrew Dunn http://agdunn.net -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
How did you lose the drives then? If it is a mission-critical array, what RAID type are you using? Are you backing up the data regularly, since it is mission-critical?
