recover deleted file in centOS

Post by viswanath p » 2016/08/31 19:46:16

We had an IBM Basic server with centOS and raid1 configured system as server.

The system is ok in all respects. Few days back one file/folder was deleted accidentally.

can i recover the file which is very important for us. without disturbing the hard discs which are Raid 1 configured.

Please help me in solving the problem.

Like windows there should be a recycled bin so as to have a restore the file before it gets deleted permentely.

Help required

Few days ago ? That can be to late to recover.

Install testdisk and try to recover. First make a image of disk, and try recover on this image. It is highly desirable to know what you like to recover, and where it was in path.

BTW: You should have backup of important data.
