    I accidentally run this on SSH:
    But instantly cancel it with CTRL+C.

    What could be possibly wrong with that?
    XenForo file health check says all intact.

    After that I monitor my Disk Usage is not changing:
    Nodequery reported 11-12gb loss :/
    upload_2020-2-2_0-1-11.png

    Comparing my remote backup server to live server has 11-12gb loss also.
    I might rsync from backup server :/.

    confirm that was the command by inspecting your command history
    Code (Text):
    history


    but how old is local backup and how frequent is the backups ? you can do a diff comparison of directories to see what it reports for live vs backup.

    Yes.
    Every 4am, and that was 20 hours ago.
    I already did sync from 20 hours old backup.
    Seems to be no problem :D.

    I'm on the process of collecting every addon and xenforo files to zip package and upload to my server to be sure everything is intact.
