All messages in the queue were deleted and the system appears happy again. Lol stopped responding to network traffic. The server was in an active but unusable state. We took the opportunity to put Lol back on the original, repaired hardware. We will be leaving the Vinca link down and pursuing a solution.
All systems are go.
We switched the good Lol data onto our backup hardware to allow Dell technical support to replace some faulty components in the original hardware. We believe that the trouble is between the drive problem and the Vinca link we use to mirror the drive information to the backup system. We will be leaving one dead drive out of the system and the Vinca link will remain down until a repair is available. 2pm Lol crashed. The system exhibited strange behavior.
