System Corrupted!

[LTVDrew]

What happens when you use the "Restore LVM VG (Volume Group) configuration" option?

Nothing happens - that option does not exist since since it can't see the VG. I only had one VG00.

Right now I'm booted off the demo CD using the Promise Web configuration tool trying to Synchronize the drives.

Synchronization will check and correct any errors on the drive. It'll take overnight to finish so I'll post an update when its done.

Let's get you on Remote Support as well. This will take time - just provide them the email address and cc the support team. You might have been up in the past but there could have been a break in the connections.

Well, I think I still have a job since I saved the patient this morning. After running the Promise Synchronization tool overnight, I tried booting it this morning. No error! It booted up OK and I was able to use the extended tools and "select default volume group."

I put the server back on the network and all the data is still there.

The next phase in this is to figure out what actually happened. This system ran flawless for almost a year in a dedicated server environment protected by UPS and generator. We didn't have any power hits or anything unusual and the RAID controller logs didn't report anything.

Thanks for the help thus far.
