Today is an unforgettable day, at that time originally wanted to clear our company website CMS directory below some CDN push webpage residue of trash file, result in execution Rm-rf conten* when hit RM-RF Conten * result is tragic. CMS directory under the all to delete, the style of the home page is all gone, then silly, the site directly hanging upgrade page, because the backup is not complete, only the test environment pull a copy, and PHP colleagues slowly change, although the best, but to the company caused the impact is very serious, I really want to cry without tears.
