We won't release anything tonight.  We're working on a hardware problem.

Have a good night.

Always gut renching news

Like having been punched hard in the ribs.

I sympathise with hardware problems though.

Server here at work stopped working today - rebooted the machine, couldn't find an OS, used a boot disk and it couldn't find the C drive. put it in my machine and it saw all the drives but the C drive was TOTALLY empty. The whole OS, program files etc had all just disappeared.
Lost the domain controller, Exchange server, everythin

That's why I'm here till 11.30 tryin to get the system somewhat runnin again before tomorrow.

Nila, I know what is that. Just imagine myself troubleshooting two fibre channel libraries of 20hdds each, these two connected to a fibre channel hub. This hub connected to two servers with fibrechannel controllers running two windows 2000 servers as a cluster. Oh running exchange server, IIS, platinum accounting, MAS90, etc, etc. ALL DOWN!. So I stayed until 4:00am with a pitza in one hand and Microsoft in the other. So I know. My simpathies.

Love the image turbo - that's basically the life of sys admin's

Anyway, gonna have to rebuild the whole server machine today with RAID 1.

Lost the whole domain controller and everything on it.

Grr - NO idea what caused it or what happened either which is the worst part.
