Nolan divides by zero.
But it's funny how in this statement two concepts are mentioned in different words, yet are the same if you look at them from the right perspective - just as the main characters in the movie.

You must be "joking", right ?

Nope! I am so serious and don't ask me why!

Last week my postgres development database fell down because of some transaction id overflowing. We're still running maintenance on the large tables in standalone mode today, and yesterday the production server almost died after a reboot: "Sec Master Hard Disk:S.M.A.R.T. Status BAD, Backup and Replace
Press F1 to Resume". After some investigation it looks like the HD of the database is dying. And, oh goody, the message is :
SMART overall-health self-assessment test result: FAILED!
Drive failure expected in less than 24 hours. SAVE ALL DATA.
Failed Attributes:
ID# ATTRIBUTE_NAME FLAG VALUE WORST THRESH TYPE UPDATED WHEN_FAILED RAW_VALUE
5 Reallocated_Sector_Ct 0x0033 001 001 036 Pre-fail Always FAILING_NOW 4095
oh come one!
And of course no drives available that are large enough for a backup... (I could use the dev database, which is a pretty good copy, but that one is still in maintenance)
So I genuinally, sincerely hope your day is working out better than mine ...

That's why you no walk around with Databases!
No seriously, good luck on the backup and restore process, sending some good thoughts to you and hope it doesn't get worse

Pity you're so far away - I've got my old RAID NAS (4TB) I could clear, and I could scare up a couple of USB 2TB and 4TB HDDs if you were desperate.
But you are too far away for that to be feasible, so drive quickly to PCWorld, Maplin, or similar and get something similar!

I'm working for the goverment, it's a Vogon administration....
but thanks for the offer
|
|
|
|

And of course the government has no money to pay for a decent RAID solution...
(If I had a disk failure right now, I would pull out the bad disk from the RAID, call for a replacement disk and push it in before going home...)

I like RAID 5!

It is a RAID 1+0 (sometimes called RAID 10) - RAID 5 is less recommended as the rebuilding process is more risky...

RAID10 is good - but expensive in terms of disks, and for my needs RAID5 works well - and has proved it's worth with a HDD failure giving no interruption or data loss, but with a degree of slow down I could live with until the new disk arrived and was rebuilt.
The new NAS is hot-swappable, which is a big plus compared to the old one, but I didn't fancy giving away over 1/2 my new capacity for RAID 10. Just over 1/3 was fine.

I'm RAID 5 on my home server for the same reasons as OG - I also run every OS as a VM under esXi I will never go back to dual booting and having separate hardware for different OS's

RAID 5 is definitely dodgy, and not just because of the rebuild time - another disk can fail during the rebuild. For all my RAID 5 clients, I insist on a hot spare, a cold spare, and a complete replacement set from a different source. Hey - nothing wrong with paranoia!
I am slowly moving my clients to RAID 1 + 0, but they keep asking "What's it gonna cost?". I refer them to a KPMG survey that showed that 85% of companies that suffered a massive critical data loss go belly-up within two years (and another 10% within three years).
