Did everyone else with a colo-mojo account just have all database servers vanish, or am I lucky?

Turned out that two of the directories in the backups where corrupted as they had backed up my drive which had become corrupted. The two directories that were corrupted were the directory with all my databases and a directory that contained my main domain used for doing promo.

The only thing that saved my ass was my local backups on a Mac in my home and the only reason that I had a non corrupted backup was that I do seven different backups, one for each day of the week.

Backups are smart!
