One of the RAID controllers reset in disko, the main ahimsa* NFS server, today.
It /may/ just need a reboot or something to clear it out.
So at this moment, disko is running on one stripe of the RAID-10. A drive
failure now would be catastrophic. Some details of the setup:

Again, everything is still working and running, but their is no failover
capability. Basically there are 12 drives in the setup--two pairs of 6 that
mirror each other with each pair on it's own controller. Right now the system
is running on one controller.
I am syncing non-mir sites from disko back to jojojojojojo, where there are
syncs from a few months ago. I would like to prioritize this in the order of
"most needed", so if you /do/ have a recent backup of your site, let me know so
I can make sure I get backups of the others going first.
When the jojojojojojo rsync/backup finishes, we will likely reboot and power
down the server to reset the card. When this is done we will rebuild the disko
RAID.
Nervously yours,
-Jeff
