Mailserver’s harddisk failed
Monday, March 17th, 2008Monday, Today when I check the server room, one of Mailserver’s harddisk turns into red. Indicating failed access. I remembered it already happen before. So I am not worried.
Because the mail server has fail over configuration, so I can easily shutdown the server as other server will take over it function. After shutdown, I removed the failed harddisk and re-plug in again. Somehow the server detect the same harddisk as new one, and not detect any fails, so it starts mirroring data from existing harddisk. I have no idea why the server detect it’s a good harddisk while not long time ago detect it as failed harddisk.
Well this has been noted for future reference.
