Not only THAT, but what happens to that box if I lose power whilst in the middle of operations? I am working on the migration plan to move that to XFS because of these concerns. [However, I am doing a better job of testing with XFS first.] Sounds like a MySQL bug (assuming data is on disk when perhaps it's not). Using either Oracle or Sybase you seem to be able to yank the power at pretty much any time even under load and things will recovery gracefully upon restart. --cw - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
