Everyone, our sandbox had a HD failure and replacing the drive did not fix it (RAID 5 array, W2K3). HP says there are read errors on two other drives and they are sending me replacements. The server is still running but I was having problems copying the entire Oracle database, probably due to read errors.
If I replace another drive I am going to loose all the data and several weeks of configuration. Do you have any recommendations as to how the configuration data would be best preserved to minimize downtime ? Although I would like to rebuild the server with the latest versions of everything, it is currently used to demo ITSM 7 to the enterprise and I cannot afford too much downtime. I could let it run the way it is for now, but there is no guarantee the drives won't die on me.
