Hi,
I just had something weird happen and I was wondering if someone could explain why
I use FreeBSD to record TV. I have to clear it out every once in a while because I record a lot of news, so today I tried running a lot of
At first, I thought it must've been a
I monitored the progress in another terminal and it ran fine, deleting single dirs at a time, until somewhere around
Does anyone see something in that I don't? Is there another reason that might explain why everything got deleted?
The version is FreeBSD 12.0-RELEASE-p8, and the zpool is a pool+dataset shared from another fileserver through NFS to ESXi and then presented as a local drive (ESXi NFS dataset).
Thanks!
I just had something weird happen and I was wondering if someone could explain why
I use FreeBSD to record TV. I have to clear it out every once in a while because I record a lot of news, so today I tried running a lot of
rm -rf <dirname> &&
commands, but it deleted everything after running for a while.At first, I thought it must've been a
rm -rf *
accidentally put in there somewhere, but I don't see it in the command chain that I ran. Here's exactly what I ran:
Code:
rm -rf New\ Day\ With\ Alisyn\ Camerota\ and\ John\ Berman/ && rm -rf Morning\ Joe/ && rm -rf The\ Late\ Show\ With\ Stephen\ Colbert/ && rm -rf PBS\ NewsHour * && rm -rf The\ Situation\ Room\ With\ Wolf\ Blitzer/ && rm -rf CNN\ Newsroom\ * && The\ Axe\ Files\ With\ David\ Axelrod/ && rm -rf The\ Mueller\ Report\ What\ You\ Need\ to\ Know/ && rm -rf CNN\ Debate\ * && America\ Under\ Assault\ The\ Gun\ Crisis\ Cuomo\ Prime\ Time\ Town\ Hall/ && rm -rf The\ Van\ Jones\ Show/ && rm -rf S.\ E.\ Cupp\ Unfiltered/ && rm -rf Saturday\ Night\ Politics/ && rm -rf Smerconish/ && rm -rf 2020\ Democratic\ Candidates\ Debate/ && rm -rf MSNBC\ Live* && rm -rf Reliable\ Sources\ with\ Brian\ Stelter/ && rm -rf State\ of\ the\ Union\ With\ Jake\ Tapper/ && rm -rf CNN\ Democratic\ Presidential\ Debate/ && rm -rf This\ Week\ With\ George\ Stephanopoulos/ && rm -rf Washington\ Week/ && rm -rf Matter\ of\ Fact\ With\ Soledad\ O\'Brien/ && rm -rf Meet\ the\ Press/ && rm -rf Anthony\ Bourdain\ Parts\ Unknown/ && rm -rf Kasie\ DC/ && rm -rf PoliticsNation/ && rm -rf Cuomo\ Prime\ Time/ && rm -rf PBS\ NewsHour* && rm -rf Face\ the\ Nation/ && rm -rf AM\ Joy/ && rm -rf Up\ with\ David\ Gura/ && rm -rf Weekends\ With\ Alex\ Witt/ && rm -rf The\ Beat\ With\ Ari\ Melber/ && rm -rf The\ Rachel\ Maddow\ Show/ && rm -rf Andrea\ Mitchell\ Reports/ && rm -rf CNN\ Right\ Now\ With\ Brianna\ Keilar/ && rm -rf MTP\ Daily/ && rm -rf The\ Lead\ With\ Jake\ Tapper/ && rm -rf All\ In\ With\ Chris\ Hayes/ && rm -rf Deadline\ White\ House/ && rm -rf Anderson\ Cooper\ 360/ && rm -rf CNN\ Tonight\ With\ Don\ Lemon/ && rm -rf Shepard\ Smith\ Reporting/
I monitored the progress in another terminal and it ran fine, deleting single dirs at a time, until somewhere around
rm -rf The\ Beat\ With\ Ari\ Melber/
. I don't see anything weird about the commands, though.Does anyone see something in that I don't? Is there another reason that might explain why everything got deleted?
