This is a unlacky day! I deleted some data in my server by mistake. Please recommend me some data recovery programes. I don't want to carry the big thing to a company of data service.
Thanks very much to my friends
Stop any writes to the disk if you can. Any writing of new files may trash the traces of what you deleted.
We need more details. We don't even know what hardware you're operating on, let alone what version of what software.
Thanks very much for reply.
The server is Dell 1750. hard disk is SCSI 146G.
I deleted a folder witch contains about 100M website data.
I have stop the server and tack out the harddisk.
What should I do next?
What software was the server running?
What filesystem was the data stored on?
First thing I'd do is make a blind copy of the disk to guarantee my data recovery efforts don't make it worse.
dd if=/dev/oopsmybad1 of=/path/to/backupbackup bs=65536
backupbackup has to go on a filesystem big enough to hold it, of course.
What happens next depends on the nature of your system.
Thank very much for your reply.
The software is FreeBSD 8.0
filesystem is devfs
Might be UFS2, then. If you can make sure of that, you might give UFS Explorer a whirl.
[edit] I see you sneak-edited. I don't think devfs makes sense at all, more likely UFS or something else.
I found the info in the website. Thanks very much for your help
