PdxMan 4,292 Posted January 12, 2012 I'm guessing there was a corrupt database issue and we lost a couple day's worth of data. Not doing those transaction log backup, eh? I saw there were several SQL Database errors leading up to the site's demise. That is too bad. I'm a SQL DBA with over 12 years experience if you need any help/advice on dealing with corrupt databases or restoring logs. 1 kgb reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PdxMan 4,292 Posted January 13, 2012 I'm hoping we hear from Alex. If they try a restore, then we will lose everything we posted today. There will come a point of diminishing returns on that, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex Brecher 10,515 Posted January 13, 2012 I'm guessing there was a corrupt database issue and we lost a couple day's worth of data. Not doing those transaction log backup, eh? I saw there were several SQL Database errors leading up to the site's demise. That is too bad. I'm a SQL DBA with over 12 years experience if you need any help/advice on dealing with corrupt databases or restoring logs. From what I can tell thus far we had maybe 2 hours worth of data loss. Are any of you seeing more than that ? We have very good backups but restoring them is painfully slow. We have a new backup system in place as well as all new server cluster hardware, which caused the issue in the first place (we had a raid card and three drives go bad all at once.)
