So today I got a call that an end user decided to try to be a developer. He built and ran a bulk edit script on his company's server.....

Without a scaled test....
As root....
From root....
Without backups....

How's this my problem again?

Oh right, it's not (yet)!

    Haha you gotta love end-user. When you think that nothing can go wrong they prove you wrong.

    Well this would be a good time to suggest backup's of all your systems.

    @thekid89 Funny thing about the backup he made, his script deleted it too.

    @bhouston It sounds like there are not really backups if he was able to delete them by running a script on the system. A basic rule of thumb is if there are not 3 copies of a file it doesn't exist and there should more then just local backups.
