Topic: Server upgrade

I am profoundly grateful to ka5 who donated the money for HDDs. Today I have installed additional 2TB RAID1 array to the server, and tomorrow will begin to make a new collection snapshot.

There was a nice uptime on the host, before I turned it off:

[root@labman ~]# uptime
18:23:05 up 96 days, 23:25, 1 user, load average: 0.35, 0.35, 0.38

:-)

HDDs:

Server:

Installing hard drives:

In the server room:

Running!

[root@labman upgrade]# cat /proc/mdstat
Personalities : [raid1]
md1 : active raid1 sdd1[1] sdb1[0]
1953511936 blocks [2/2] [UU]
[=============>.......] resync = 65.8% (1286029568/1953511936) finish=127.9min speed=86951K/sec

Re: Server upgrade

This night I finished syncing, formatting and copying parts of the info to the drives:

Filesystem             Size   Used  Avail Use%
/dev/md0               967G   588G   330G  65%
/dev/md1               2.0T   469G   1.5T  26%

Re: Server upgrade

Hi herm1t !

I'm just curious about your hardware, what kind of server is? And what OS do you use for that?

Looks great...

PS: As I see, the donations work great. I think I will collaborate in the future whith this interesting project.

Thanks for the photos.

It's core i2 on asus mb with 4x1T+2x2T drives in RAID1 arrays, two out of three raids recently degraded and I soon will replace the faulty drives under the warranty. 1G connection to the net. OS is Linux CentOS 5.
