[cobalt-users] /var/log/status gone

[Fraser Campbell <fraser@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I was having some problems with logfiles in /var/cobalt and erased most of
them.  Unfortunately, I erased /var/log/status which appears to be a
critical file for the monitor program.

Does anyone know how I can recover the contents of that file so that
/usr/local/sbin/monitor will stop emailing every single customer on my RAQ
(RAQ v 1) and admin pages will start functioning normally again?

No I don't have a backup copy of this file and yes this was a very stupid
thing to do!!!  I have disabled monitor from running in /etc/crontab so I
think I have prevented all my customers from getting spammed for now.  I
swear I will never touch a server on Christmas day again.

TIA,

Fraser
