One Last Outage - Around 1AM CDT, 15 minutes
Today's outage is proudly brought to you by Adaptec - "The number one name in overpriced RAID controllers with crappy firmware" - and Western Digital - "Our drives are so tough they eat other disk drives! Also, your data."
This is to replace the insane drive and wipe and rebuild the corrupted RAID-5 volume. Should be about 15 minutes. Once it's done, everything should be good - we have a RAID-5 array and a RAID-1 array and an enterprise SSD for the databases. What could possibly go wrong?
...
No, thanks, I don't want a list.
Update: All done, though as usual fifteen minutes became half an hour. The RAID-5 array is rebuilding now, and will be for several hours (it's 4TB) but we're safe and happy on the RAID-1 array.
