From time to time single-drives die; or the controller may die - but the integrity of the dataset should still exist spanned across the physical disks.
A utility that can detect the LM signature of a disk and put them in order - presenting the running OS with a read-only LM volume / virtual disk.
I don't know much more than that in terms of details - but I know I've needed this at least 3x over the years.
thanks, |
