Well yesterday was a fun day :/
I was talking to my wife and she told me theres a beeping in the house, well i had her check the water heater because we have an alarm in the pan so if it leaks we know well that wasnt it she told me its coming from the office ok no big deal one on my ups's must be dead.
Well got home both servers are down no problem i just reset the ups and they started to boot......5min later still no net ok maybe its taking a bit to fire up.......10min later..... what the heck so dug around got a keyboard hook up and the monitor fired up and (geek time) its giving a warning about a disk fail...... CRAP............ i hate disk failers exp when i lost all my 3D art work but another story anywho i try to get it to ingnore it and boot and it took a good 8min to finally come up and omg its bad slow went a head and shut her down and found what drive was bad......CRAP its my data drive (not this again) *cry* after some digging i remember i set it up as a raid 5 OMG YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (this means i can have 1 drive die and no data lost) so now is the fun part hunting for a drive and for my server the cheepest i have found is 148 ouch. ugh why do i have to be a computer geek our addiction isnt a cheap one.
oh well thus is life.
