Erwin posted:I remember someone on these forums telling a story of someone doing exactly that - being 'helpful' and mounting disks on a Windows server that turned out to be attached for backup purposes. A few days late, but I had a client lose all (!!!) of their data to this. They had a datastore that consisted of 4 LUNs (using extents), which were all also mapped to their Windows boxes (no LUN masking, just wildcards). There was a power outage, the Windows boxes booted first and grabbed the LUNs. Fun fact: if Windows overwrites the disk signature on an extent (not the first drive in the datastore), there is no way to fix it! (ask me about two days on the phone with NetApp and VMware).
