:) I will give it another chance.
In case of failure FreeBSD and ZFS would be another option.
I was responding to Neil's exhaustion with mdadm. I was speculating that
help threads such as yours may be a contributing factor,
requesting/requiring Neil to become Superman many times per month to try
to save some OP's bacon.
That's what mailing lists are for. And more will come as long as there
is no documentation on how to save your behind in case of failures like
that. Or if the docs with examples available online are utterly useless.
I think that those of us that have been helped on the list should think about
contributing some wiki docs, if there's one we can edit.
I have a site, ezunix.org (a bit crippled since the crash) where I
document anything I come across that can be useful.
But after all the messages I still don't know what to do if you lose 3
drives in a 5 drive RAID6 setup ;)
I was told I was doing it wrong but never how to do it right.
And that's the case of all the mailing lists I came across before I
found that wikipedia site with incorrect instructions.
