Operating Systems Linux Red Hat Recover deleted files from linux server machine.. Post 302699677 by alister on Wednesday 12th of September 2012 06:44:44 AM

There are some tools to recover deleted files, but they are filesystem specific, e.g. FAT32, ext2, etc. Unfortunately, without root, you almost certainly cannot use these tools; they require raw access to the disk/partition device, which is seldom granted to unprivileged users.

If such a tool exists for your filesystem and if you are able to attain root, you should unmount that filesystem immediately. Once the data is overwritten with another file, your chances of recovery are practically zero.

Alister

NAME
arbtt-recover - tries to recover a broken arbtt data log SYNOPSIS
arbtt-recover [OPTION...] DESCRIPTION
arbtt-recover tries to readsthe data samples recorded by arbtt-capture(1), skipping over possible broken entries. A fixed log file is written to <file>~/.arbtt/capture.log.recovered</file>. If the recovery was successful, you should stop arbtt-capture and move the file to <file>~/.arbtt/capture.log</file>. As a sid effect, arbtt-recover applies the log compression method implemented in version 0.4.5 to the samples created by an earlier version. If you have a large logfile written by older versions, running arbtt-recover is recommended. OPTIONS
-h, -?, --help shows a short summary of the available options, and exists. -V, --version shows the version number, and exists. -i, --infile logfile to use instead of ~/.arbtt/capture.log -o, --outfile where to save the recovered file, instead of ~/.arbtt/capture.log FILES
~/.arbtt/capture.log binary file, storing the arbtt data samples ~/.arbtt/capture.log.recovered binary file, storing the fixed arbtt data samples SEE ALSO
See the arbtt manual for more information and the arbtt hackage page[1] for newer versions of arbtt. AUTHORS
