    Disk Error

    Installed a new 42U rack which shouldn't have affected the Collatz server which is located elsewhere, but someone (me) bumped the power cord to the server while sliding the rack into place and crashed the server. It came back up with hard drive failure. I'm working on it now.

    Re: Disk Error

    And down again... Multiple DRDY ERR messages. Looks like there may be some bad blocks on one of the drives.

    Re: Disk Error

    Looks like the boot drive is toast. I have a spare drive, but it is going to take a little while to install Debian, Apache, PHP, MySQL, etc. and get Collatz back up and running. I doubt that it will be a one evening job. My guess is it may not be running until sometime this weekend.

    Re: Disk Error

    Do you believe the DB is intact or should we kill all work in progress?

    Re: Disk Error

    The DB appears to be intact and I also have the last nightly backup. The bigger question is whether the upload/download folders are corrupted. I kicked off a backup this a.m. and am crossing my fingers that it ran OK. I'll find out tonight.
