NTDS ISAM Error

[Cameron Dorrough]

After a RAID drive crash, I'm getting the following error:

Event Type: Error
Event Source: NTDS ISAM
Event Category: Database Page Cache
Event ID: 405
Description:
NTDS (268) Pre-read page checksum error -1018 ((1:1535 1:1005) (0-55393)
(0-183656)) occurred. Please restore the databases from a previous backup.

Can anyone tell me (exactly) what I need to do?? Microsoft and JSI sites
don't help..

TIA,
Cameron

Thanks, Jerold - I did a restore and all is well again (several hours
later..).

It seems that if one disk in a Promise RAID1 array fails non-fatally, the
corrupt data gets copied to the good disk :-(
