Sad Sad day. My oldest node (20 months on V3 and lived even on v2) is dead. Yesterday i heard clicking of a hard drive and couldn’t find where it was coming from. Today i came home, went to check the dashboards and didn’t get a response from this node. I plugged in the HDMI cable and saw a read …

Sorry to hear about that. That drop off at the end is such a sad sight. Good luck with the new node! Come back stronger than ever!

That’s unfortunate, but it looks like it more than paid for its own replacement at the least! [image] mrkeyboardcommando: I am sorry for the network needing to replace this data. No worries, we’ll take good care of it on our nodes. :slight_smile:

RIP It’s valor will be remembered lol

I know how it feels I had 7 month old storage node. The HDD didn’t die as it is in an enterprise server in a raid. Instead I failed on security front. I was attacked by an opened VNC port and a ransomware was placed on the system. since than I have much more secure network. now I’m rebuilding.

Any opinions on ZFS vs MDRAID? I know one should just use 1 disk per node… but these are 6 + years old disks that i am planning to use. Better have some security as it is more than likely to fail. normally i would choose 1 disk per node, just not with this age of disks. The new system has more t…

huh, the same almost happened to me when hdd I had node on started to crashing. Somehow I managed to copy node files to antoher disk, it took few days for ~4TB of data. Week or so after, disk died.

Same here bro, join the club :frowning:

i am really happy with zfs, it’s a very mature solution… so far zfs has only impressed me. only thing that is really subtracts from zfs, is the problems with adding and removing drives from raidz pools. the benefit that zfs uses Copy on Write and has multiple levels of checksums on everything cann…

Is ceph even allowed for storagenode? I thought only iSCSI…

Makes it very easy to monitor 8 nodes
(doesn’t monitor smart values though. haven’t found a good and easy approach for that yet)
