Can someone please tell me (teach me) how to not lose a domain controller hard drive? I am practically in tears in frustration because yet again my domain controller disk went bad, sour, kaput. I rebooted after running into a few issues (namely not being able to run Regedit.exe (or RegEdt32.exe) and attempting to perform a System State backup but erroring out because it couldn't write to the event log) and was greeting with the all too pleasant to behold phrase:
Non-System disk or disk error
replace and strike any key when ready |
What is this? the fourth time this year? fifth? I've lost count. I've used different disks, different computers, different outlets...I ALWAYS get bad sectors and/or corrupted data and/or crashed drives on my domain controller computers. I am fed up with it. I am yet again faced with rebuilding my domain - mostly because I don't have (anymore) any trust in my System State backups - who knows? maybe I backed up corrupted data. I sure don't want to restore it. On the bright side, my domain controller is just one computer and there is only one other member server...but lots'o'workstations.
I must be doing something wrong.
I should've been a farmer.
