Possible Outage
Wednesday, July 7th, 2004With all the storms we had it looks like the Hard Drive that runs the
server got corrupted and I need to move what I can to a new one.
Luckilly I live by EPC and picked
up a whole new computer!! The server now is a p100 and I picked
up a p2 266 with a 2gig HD and cdrom for $40. I’m going to
replace the processer with a p2 350 I have laying around to give it
some more boost and it should speed things up around here.
I’m going to try to just copy everything to the new HD but I don’t know
if thats going to work. If it does, we should only be down for
about an hour, if it doesn’t, it might take a day to reinstall and get
everything set up properly again. Somebody please remind me to
ask for a CD burner or a UPS for Christmas or Birthday so 1) I won’t
have power outage related problems and 2) if I do it will be easier to
restore from backup.
Anyway, thats the plan. Hopefully I’ll have time this weekend to give it a shot so we won’t be down for long. (more…)
