Resizing the / partition & file system without backup, just to feel something. -
Test your damn backup scripts.Back in the 90’s I was managing some servers and had Perl scripts running cron jobs. When the jobs were done… they would send me an email with the logging output of the job.
One day I realized that I had not seen an email from a specific job/server for a few days. (failure mode, not getting the email and not realizing it)
Oops.
So… I wrote a Perl module that the jobs were “registered” with… and that became the dashboad of my system.
Instead of me having to remember the email.
