b) the "he is dead" argument: I simply do not have the money for that external disk.
that's why we said: do the backup first.
Of course, if you really need permanent access (no shutdown time), only raid can do that
jdd Need.... I would do reference to a nice sentence we had in the office. "Technical breakdowns tend to manifest themselves in periods of critical need. So be nice and talk friendly to your machine".... If one disk really breaks it is sure that even with a backup, it is much safer to have also a RAID1. Now the critical data I back them up. Just not "all".
I would also need to convert to raid the kvm store I have created. But this is not really important, as I do not do valid work on it for now. That is a 2 TB disk by the way.
The order of preferables is: * one disk * better one disk with a backup * even better raid plus backup. Raid without backup is *baaaad*. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.0 x86_64 at Telcontar)
