Client (a bit clumsy but positive and honest) calls: "Help! Just came back from lunch break and accidentally deleted all files on the file server!"
Me, unfazed: "Alright, besides you, who else worked on the file server during lunch break?"
Client: "No one, we were all away and I'm the first one back. Others will be back by 15:00"
Me, looking at the clock and noticing it's 14:30: "Okay, what time did you go to lunch?"
Client: "At 13:30. How long will it take to restore from the backup? Do you think we'll be able to work tomorrow?"
Me, without flinching as I type "zfs rollback *dataset-13:45-snapshot": "Done"
Client: "All the files reappeared!"
Me: "Thank , , and whoever set up automatic snapshots every 15 minutes."

Dites, toute une série de fichiers corrompus (Ils apparaissent avec la bonne taille, mais un head me retourne du vide) sur une partition hfs+ (oui, je sais, mais c'est pas a moi ;) ) ça vous dit quelque chose? Une moyen de récupérer ça? (Bien sûr la personne n'a pas de backup 😵)

Long shot...

I have an microSD card belonging to a friend, with the last photos she has of her late husband. Unfortunately under magnification it seems to have a hairline fracture. *Very* occasionally Linux recognises the card in a USB reader and tools can read the first 4K block forensically, but it's usually physically unresponsive and not even showing up as a device. I'm sure an expensive lab could recover it, but that's well out of reach. Any sane ideas welcome.

I'm glad I just moved my library to the new NAS back in January. I've never seen an external HDD melt its own power cable.

I converted it to HTML for my blog. Now people who don't like plaintext can get data off of their damaged filesystems.

Situation: Syncthing deleted all files on every device
I have a file sync software called Syncthing on my PC and also on my android device. On Android the sync folder is on a SD card which is encrypted in case I lose my phone.
After updating and restarting the smartphone the SD card takes some time to get decrypted again. However, the Syncthing app was faster in starting up than the phone decrypting the SD card. Syncthing seemed to think that having no files is the recent update and also deleted the files on my PC. I had file versioning on my smartphone but I couldn’t recover my files, probably due to an obviously missing storage device.
After finish decrypting the SD card it just showed four empty “.stfolder” on the smartphone and also on the PC and my files were gone.

My email to the linux-btrfs mailinglist is tripping the list's spam filter? :shrug:, getting in contact with the postmaster.

But I'm trying to publicly announce `btrfs-rec`, a new tool for recovering data from corrupt filesystems.

git.lukeshu.com/btrfs-progs-ng

Besides it being useful, an interesting thing (not necessarily good, but interesting) is that it's a 100% implementation of btrfs.
