gilgamesh: gilgamesh status

[John Kitchin]

Hi everyone,

gilgamesh is currently up, and as far as I can tell functional.

I do not know what happened precisely. A drive in the Raid array failed,
and the array "disappeared". I was able to get it to reappear after
rebooting, replace the drive, and rebuild it. however, there was some
corruption that had to be fixed. That was fixed, and it appears that things
are in order.

The problem is, this should never have happened! We were lucky the array
was recovered. That may not happen again if this should reoccur. So, make
sure you keep your data backed up.

so, you can go ahead and try logging in. things should be working.

There are indications another drive needs to be replaced, but hopefully
that will not interrupt service.

John
