@Obsolesce curious on the 70% figure... i usually throw up with 80% because of some studies that show how population shifts after 10 to 20% at most start moving into another direction. any reasons for the 70?

It's a joke...

Bunch of dumbass people who are setting up servers without any security in place.

It's more than that. It's not a lack of security. It's actively publishing the database publicly!

Exactly, if the DB is running on a server, that server should not be publicly accessible.

@JaredBusch ah, i see it now. Doh.

Classic bias-caused mistake.

Well yes, I'll agree there. But I will say, I'm not the one who made it, that would be the reason that I missed it on verification. It was sent to me. So I had the additional bias of "I was told X" and when I looked it appeared to be true. If I had found the page myself rather than having it interpreted for me maybe I wouldn't have made the mistake.

This is how it works on Facebook. Someone posts an article with an idiotic biased headline, 70% of everyone only reads the headline, most who do read the biased or incorrectly written article never even read the source.

Only thing that would interrupt this sequential operation is other I/O operations on the array, but that is true for all types of raid arrays.

Yes, that affects all types. But as mirror recreation is so much faster typically (from hours to months faster depending on drives and controllers and activity) you often get to rebuild mirrors with low or no load, and parity almost always gets hit with production load.

Yup, I did a RAID5 rebuild that took well over a month. Couldn't help it, it had to stay in production because contained too much data to keep it down long enough to rebuild at 100%, as that still would have taken weeks. I tried to rebuild another another RAID 5 too, but gave up after a few weeks. It was still faster at that point to set up something else and migrate/sync the data over and start over.

Again, couldn't image them being a RAID 6. There's no way they'd have survived a rebuild.

@DustinB3403

If it's open source, can't you review the code to find it?

@PhlipElder : Why did you stop deploying RAID 10? It's about the most fault tolerant and performance oriented RAID config one can get for hardware RAID.

Nope.

Had a virtualization host RAID 10 drive, of six, die.

I popped by, did a hot swap of the dead drive, rebuild started, and I sat for a coffee with the on-site IT person.

About 5 minutes into that coffee we heard a BEEP, BEEP-BEEP, and then nothing. It was sitting at the RAID POST prompt indicating failed array and no POST.

It's pair had died too.

I'll stick with RAID 6 thank you very much. We'd still have had the server.

We ended up installing a fresh OS, setting things up, and recovering from backup (ShadowProtect) after flattening and setting up the array again.

You can't say that. There's way more work being done on the drives with a RAID6, maybe then 3 or 4 drives would have went out close together instead of just two. If you think a RAID10 was the cause of 2 drives dieing, then holy shit a RAID 6 woulda killed 3+.

My guesses are one or more of the folowing:

• a bad batch of drives
• wrong drives
• drives used past their warranty/expectancy or whatever
• lack of monitoring

And by the way, a RAID 10 isn't really a "rebuild". It's not a very disk intensive thing like it is with a RAID 6.

Are you just verifying it works? ICMP is disabled in windows firewall quite often, and really isn't necessary.

No I can confirm that DHCP works, but from my client which is on an separate network I'm unable to route to the internet. Which is what I'm attempting to do.

I want to route internet traffic from 10.200.1.X network through 192.168.1.9 so that the scope has internet connectivity.

A Windows Server with DC, DNS, and DHCP server roles does not do network traffic routing. Are you wanting to do RRAS?
