Re: [SQU] if one disk dies...

Assuming your OS can deal with the situation, Squid will complain loudly
but hopefully suriving, at least in some configurations.

Squid will not be very happy if it cannot read/write to the swap.state
file, so if the disk where swap.state is located (which defaults to
being the same place as where the cache is) crashes, then Squid will be
very unhappy about the situation until the failing cache_dir is removed
from squid.conf. (see cache_swap_log directive for how to move the
swap.state files somewhere else than the cache files..)
