Well, that happened fast! I powered down to check connections, etc. like it told me to, and that was the end. Bye-bye server.
I must have had a coincidental failure, because I also haven't been able to get on-line until just now. Cable problems, I guess. Got just one machine on-line, and (naturally) my ProFox address is from my own server, so I can't get anything there. &$^*%&#$#. I feel so ignorant on hardware issues. Yes, I am using the RAID for mirroring. Frankly, I didn't know there was any other use of it. Silly me, I thought that the RAID array existed so that if one drive failed, the other one would take over. Then you get a replacement drive. But one drive failed, the system is toast. I suppose I should have had a backup drive available, but given my misunderstanding -- not. In the meanwhile: - I took the "surviving" disk from the raid array and booted the server with it as a conventional disk. Yay! I got it to boot -- once. %^*#$^&%#*^. Now it says that ntoskrnl.exe is missing or corrupt, so *that* disk must be dying, too. <grumble> - I went out and bought 2 new disks, in preparation for the worst.
