Server data recovery is to recover the lost or damaged data as much as possible through a series of operations and tools when the server suffers from hardware or software failure, data loss or damage. Here are some common server data failure causes and recovery methods:
Hard disk failure:
Cause: The hard disk may be faulty physically, logically, or the file system may be damaged.
Recovery solution: Using professional data recovery tools or services, you may need to connect the hard disk to a dedicated data recovery device for data recovery.
File system corruption:
Cause: File system corruption may cause data inaccessible.
Recovery scenario: Repair using a file system repair tool or, in some cases, restore data by backing up an uncorrupted file system.
Delete or format by mistake:
Cause: The user deletes the file or formats the storage media by mistake.
Recovery scenario: Try to retrieve data from formatted storage media using data recovery software, or restore using a recent backup.
RAID failure:
Cause: The hard disk in the RAID array is faulty or the RAID controller is faulty.
Recovery solution: Replace the damaged hard disk and rebuild the RAID array. For more serious failures, a professional RAID data recovery service may be required.
Operating system failure:
Cause: The operating system is damaged or startup error occurs.
Recovery solution: Restore the operating system using the operating system installation media or recovery partition, or restore the operating system using the backup.
Virus or malware attacks:
Cause of failure: Viruses or malware may cause data corruption or encryption.
Recovery plan: Run anti-virus software to remove the virus and try to restore the affected data using the backup.
Power failure or hardware failure:
Cause: Hardware faults, such as the power supply or memory.
Recovery solution: Replace the faulty hardware components and restore the system.
Database failure:
Fault causes: database damage, transaction log errors, etc.
Recovery scenario: Repair using database management tools, or restore data from a database backup.
Regardless of the method used, appropriate measures can be taken before data recovery to prevent further damage to the data. Backup is a powerful way to prevent the loss of books, and can quickly restore data in the event of a failure. Regular testing and verification of backup integrity and availability is also an important measure.
