Because the fat people ate it.
Fata$$.
Do you work at Krispy Kreame corporate HQ ?
You work in IT? If the server was so important, how come daily backups aren't run? Why wasn't it on a raid5?
Sounds to me like someone brought up dieting so that no one would realize that they f-ed up in planning a good backup solution for the server.
Fat people in server rooms and IDFs are a bad idea. They knock cables loose and pinch fibre when they try to squeeze in there.

If you were paying attention, he did say that daily backups are supposed to be run, but they haven't worked since 12/22. Sounds like the backup manager/team/administrator has some serious answering to do. Hardware failures can't be predicted, but if your backups aren't good you're screwed when they do happen. I still don't see what dieting has to do with a server crash. F* them, get out ASAP.
Ummm.... RAID 1+0 > RAID 5.
The additional mass provides sufficient gravitional force between the server and its surrounding cubicle operators to keep things in sync.
It's simple physics. Large masses orbiting around something larger. Losing that mass just fvcks things up.
It's true. When I was a computer operator, they made me bulk up. That is why I am so fat. I was 20 lbs short of being lead operator. My heft really souped the mainframe up.The additional mass provides sufficient gravitional force between the server and its surrounding cubicle operators to keep things in sync.

I accept fat people, I accept that they need to shed some pounds and stop complaining because they like to have their own glutton bowl every night.
OK - server was not built with raid-5, why I don't know - this was before my time here. I have asked to have that server rebuild several times however management never wanted to take it down. Due to that same fact the last image I had of it was back in Nov.
Yes, the backup team dropped the ball on this one. They backup 400+ server so they have a TON of failed backups to research every day. It would seem that they just skipped over a few. Yes heads did roll over this.
RAID1+0 is better than RAID5 - that's probably why....
don't agree - RAID5 with a hot spare - thats the way to go
Agreed.
Heh, yep, still sticking to my guns on the RAID 5 issue... 400+ servers is a lot to keep track of though, so I kinda understand that one.
I still say the diet thing was brought up in an attempt to take attention away from someone's screwup, and done so with the knowledge that the boss is fat. The fat people are out to get you.

Umm... you can use a hot spare with 1+0 and the performance of that setup (all else being equal) should beat the pants off RAID5. There's no parity calculation in 1+0.
It's quite expensive, though.
Yeah, what happened to the donuts?
Not yet - I have a big team meeting on Monday - Thought that would be a good time. That way I can drop the comment in front of management.
Ooooh... I sense a great thread on monday!
SkaredShtles FTW!
bdamschen, I'd be more than happen to explain it to you why RAID 1+0 is better than RAID 5. Much beer will have to be involved though, and perhaps a wrestling match afterwards...
Or you could just ask your boss.
I've always imagine you just sound like some pompous dillhole. Now the voice that comes to mind is the Comic Book Guy.
SCORE! The secret society of man boobs wins again!
It must have been a Fat Server.
omg....your sig is hilarious.
irate2: Approved!
DOH! I have sigs turned off so I wasn't sure what I'd written... when I checked it made me laugh too. I'm sure it's a shirley quote form some time ago.omg....your sig is hilarious.
So...how'd the donuts in Friday's meeting go over?
