Say - you didn't test it before going production?
;-))
Never mind - I was that ignorant myself. However my current RAID V's are
tested above the specs - installed RH7.2, removed 2 (sic!) disks, and
remounted. The controller complained (of course) but still offered to try
to remount - bingo, worked.
I feel somehow safe now.
