That's not what I mean by a full RAID failure. I've had plenty of disks fail and subsequent successful rebuilds. I'm saying on one occasion (because of an oversight) I ended up with an unrecoverable RAID 5 because of disk failures. Of course, this wasn't a serious problem because I also had backups. -- Jefferson Ogata : Internetworker, Antibozo <[email protected]> http://www.antibozo.net/ogata/ _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list [email protected] https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge Please read the FAQ at http://lists.us.dell.com/faq
