Oh, one of our customers’ users deleted the
/var
directory on one of the servers we provided to them, because it was “taking up too much space on disk”. That’s where Postgres saves its DBs as well; wiped out weeks of work in production for them. This hits very close to home.Forester@yiffit.net 4 months ago

First thing to do with the bare metal server is enabling ufw via ssh and then asking someone to hard reboot it in the hopes, it wasn’t saved…
“Duh! Of course we need root access!”

For the love of Christ, back your shit up before you fuck with it please especially if you have no idea what you’re doing.

Also: Move stuff, don’t delete it. It’s faster to restore from a renamed folder than from backup.

No backup no sympathy
