Comments on Data recovery from accidentally deleted files or crashed drives in Redhat, CentOS and Fedora Linux

Data recovery from accidentally deleted files or crashed drives in Redhat, CentOS and Fedora Linux This tutorial will help you to recover data from accidentally deleted data from Linux-file systems. This is a very drastic mistake by any user/admin which costs for huge penalties. This script will be a boon for newbies/expert for data management. I will be using TestDisk for data-recovery. Here I have simplified the task with the help of a script.

You forgot to mention a very important caveat:

 

TestDisk is very limited in the types of files it can recover.

Very important you dont need this script for running you own server/system test disk.

 just unzip and you have executable file to from testdisk. you may good with writing script but this was not required.

Really helpful info for redhat, linux and CentOS users. because lot of time we get panic when our data is lost. thanks for sharing.

what if one wants to recover files only between a specific time range and of a specific type such as for example img files only.

There should be enhancement for that too dont you think?
