13:13.01 | toxboi | anyone has any idea how to create a new partition table without losing data? |
13:14.12 | toxboi | my server running RAID-1 lost it's partition table and I was wondering is there any hope to get the data back. |
13:23.59 | morsing | "Lost"? |
13:24.04 | morsing | On both disks? |
13:36.22 | toxboi | morsing: unfortunately yes |
13:36.49 | toxboi | I think something just wrote on partition table which replicated to both the disk. |
13:37.47 | toxboi | otherwise, RAID-1 would have recovered it. |
13:39.34 | morsing | PCs suck big time |
13:42.32 | blackops | they do |
13:43.08 | blackops | toxboi: normally all partitions have a signature that you can look for (apart from swap) |
13:45.35 | morsing | toxboi: Recover from backup? |
13:49.51 | toxboi | morsing: The backups are from last night. |
13:50.58 | toxboi | blackops: but I can't access the disk. How do I look for the signatures then? |
13:57.25 | blackops | if you can't access the disks, I think that's your issue :P |
13:57.56 | whiteops | blackops: ok |
14:43.25 | morsing | toxboi: ? Backing up your partition table should really be on an adhoc basis |
14:53.18 | toxboi | morsing: I didn't have the partition table backup. Perhaps, I'll make sure I do this for all my servers. |
14:54.14 | toxboi | looks like I would have written a new partition table if I've the start/end block numbers. |
