Hello,
I want to get some advice from you about some lost files. A user has indeliberatly deleted some common files managed by a samba server on an xfs filesystem. I want to undelete these files if possible. I have used the testdisk and its file management tool before, but this time the problem is that the partition has 443 G of data used. It would be extremely hard to pick the lost files from a vast bunch of data.
What would you recommend for this issue ? Thank you.
Restore from backups.
Also, Asking on the XFS list would be a good start - this is a FAQ. CC'd the XFS list so people can tell you their tails of recovery.
Finally:

Cheers,
Dave.
