Re: Lost object history - disk replacement

[ChadB@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

My first reaction is that the history was lost on the cleanup work rather
than the drive replacement...

On 4/19/2008 [Patriot's Day for us New Englanders] our operations staff
replaced the disk. We [developers] understood we had some cleanup work to
get done prior to the replacement. All went well.

However, I was quite surprised to find after it was a done deal that we had
lost some object history.

I rely on this information to check when I last ran a  program or when a
file was last updated. It's OK now for objects that have their information
changed frequently.

Obviously it's too late, now, but could this have been avoided?
