On top of the problems we've been having with Geoffrin, the new database server, the secondary web server (and backup database server, and mail server) Pliny has developed some sort of disk problem.
Hopefully the disk can be swapped out or something in the next couple days... In the meantime, things are offline.

[Please, don't take it personal, but it's time to think different ;) ]
What about buying Linux certified hardware? And running an "stable" Enterprise Server software on it?

Which kernel version do you use? and do you have some specific information of the error (from the journal of the filesystem ? i/o error on read() or write() ? ...)?
There is various issue on some specifc disk driver (e.g. some specific IDE chipset). Are you sure that the hardware problem is really a hardware problem ?
