Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org The situation on master.kernel.org is looking pretty grim. We were trying to add disk capacity (the host uses a DAC960PRL RAID controller) and the end result seems to be that a Mylex utility called "ezsetup" has completely trashed the RAID configuration information. What makes matters worse is that an MIS screwup here means no backups have been running for a month or so. Clearly, the archive section of the system is mirrored, and therefore recoverable, but there are lots of scripts and anything else that involves automation that may be lost if we cannot recover this data. -hpa -- at work, in private!
