ARCHIVED: If I accidentally delete my RFS data, can I request that my data be restored?

This content has been archived, and is no longer maintained by Indiana University. Information here may no longer be accurate, and links may no longer be available or reliable.

If you accidentally delete data in your Research File System (RFS) space, you can request a restore for $15. At Indiana University Bloomington, contact the UITS Support Center at 812-855-6789, or send email to ithelp@iu.edu. At IUPUI, send email to the same address, or phone the UITS Support Center at 317-274-4357. However, the read-only 1day-backup directory in your RFS space allows you to restore a file deleted accidentally since the last system backup was performed (usually the previous night).

Note: The deleted file will not be retained when the folder is backed up at the end of the twenty-four hour cycle. If you wish to restore a document, you should copy it from the 1day-backup folder before the next system backup is performed and the file is lost.
