- Upgraded the firmware on the storage HBA, was running v9, upgraded to v16

- Updated the kernel to the latest version in CentOS 8.4

- Reshaped the array to RAID 10, with some spare disks

- Stress tested last week, much faster, no more hardware failure messages

- rsynced data back from storinator2 to storage02

- Migrated ocp.stg.ci and ocp.ci Openshift clusters back to use this array.

This work is now complete.

Hi folks,
Something to be aware of: https://pagure.io/centos-infra/issue/371

"'
There will be a planned outage for the CentOS CI OCP4 cluster on Monday 28th June for a period of 1 hour from 09:00 UTC
until 10:00 UTC but should not take the full hour to complete this work.

This work is to allow us to restore our primary storage `storage02` back into production. This should drastically improve performance as we have moved to a RAID10 configuration.

Thank you, if you have any questions, please comment them on the ticket
