Not backups resisted. When, in desperation, asked for help in a forum, there was one answered him, “You do not need technical advice, you need to call a lawyer”
A wrong code and there was no undo to save Marco Marsala. The man who has a website hosting service company was wrong to enter a code and only realized when all the computers had been erased … including safeguards ( backups ).
in desperation, Marsala resorted to a forum to try to get help from other Internet surfers and explained his mistake: “Last night I run on all servers a Bash script with rm -rf {foo} / {bar} with these undefined variables because of a bug in the code above this line. “
According to the Telegraph, the code in question,” rm-rf “not only erases everything as blocks warning messages – that would have given much way in this case. As Marsala had not specified what he wanted to delete, nothing is left.
“I have a small website hosting service company with about 1535 customers,” said Marsala, quoted by the Telegraph. And with that code, he said, “all servers and delocalized backups were deleted”
The result was that was not the customer sites and the answers received in the forum were not the most encouraging:. ” You do not need technical advice, you need to call a lawyer “; “If we do not have any backup, are sorry to say but you just destroy your business.”
