christmas is the busiest time for one of my customers, and just last week one of the data servers had hardware issues that ended up in everything but the disks being replaced because the hosting provider could not find which component was actually broken. i am busy rebuilding raid since, but already 2 out of 3 raid devices restored. it was touch and go for a while, with a risk of loosing the whole server (because raid kept claiming that disks were faulty when they really weren't) i am already rethinking the architecture to make it more robust and am trying to convince the customer to invest in new servers for that. i am the only one in my role, so i'll be monitoring the rebuild process over the holidays. that said, i don't celebrate christmas anyways, so in a team i'd be the first to volunteer to be on call at this time to allow others to relax, while i'd be taking time off on my own holidays. |
