Oh my! And I thought our backup software took a long time to restore the server... (This whole thing happened on a Friday, so 30 hours would not have been that much of a problem for the rest of the company, but I would have had to work over the weekend and spend the night on-site...)<p>The sad thing about such events is that afterwards, you <i>could</i> go &quot;Told you so&quot;, but usually, people will not only not listen, but sometimes will still find a way to blame you for what went down. (In our case, it <i>was</i> our mistake, but we were lucky our CEO took it very well - he has no problem with people making mistakes as long as they are open about it and try to learn from their mistakes. What he cannot stand, though, is people trying to cover their butt and&#x2F;or shift the blame onto others...)
