== The Fixing of Fsrv == | |||
At this point, everything was considered good to go - we had a full, working backup on a redundant array, and would only need a couple of days to rebuild the array on Fsrv and move everything back. So the array was rebuilt as a 3TB software RAID. | |||
== The Balls-up == | |||
During the rebuild, a high impedance air gap developed between the power cable providing power to backup and the power supply of backup, causing an expected power-down. Upon restart, it was discovered that the EXT4 partition holding all the data had become corrupt. It is suspected that the drive being over 95% full didn't help with this. |
