rebooting more often to stop fsck problems and total disk loss
Hi, I run several hundred servers that are used heavily (webhosting, etc.) all day long. Quite often we'll have a server that either needs a really long fsck (10 hours - 200 gig drive) or an fsck that evntually results in everything going to lost+found (pretty much a total loss). Would rebooting these servers monthly (or some other frequency) stop this? Is it correct to visualize this as small errors compounding over time thus more frequent reboots would allow quick fsck's to fix the errors before...
