Hello there,
The night before last a managed to enter "find . -print | xargs rm"
whilst logged in as root in the root directory. Massive mistake I
realise. It was late!
However I managed to kill the command before much damage was done and
the server is functioning nearly completely correctly. The two key
things I need to replace are the RPM database (which was lost) in
/var/lib/rpm amd the pgsl database which I understand can be restored
with "meta-verify".
Does anyone have a near 'clean' RPM database of a RAQ4 with, ideally
though not strictly necessary, all the Sun security patches installed
that I could have a copy of? Additionally any advice on restoring my
corrupt PostgreSQL database would very be much appreciated.
Kind regards,
Peter
