I currently have a proxmox host with a failed disk, running a VM hosting a game server in a ram-disk, created using tmpfs. Unfortunately, my backup script seems to not have been working for a number of days so there is currently no recent copy of the files saved to the disk, which would have been recoverable from the RAID array.
The guest is running Debian 10, and the entire system seems to be in read-only. Furthermore i cannot access the proxmox host via ssh (or the web interface)
Most commands fail with -bash: /usr/bin/(program): Input/output error
, however i can still read / write to the ramdisk directory itself. I can also establish new ssh connections to the guest.
Things i've tried:
scp
(Input/output error)sftp
(Times out)nc
(Input/output error)- Any of the big list of http static server one-liners (Input/output error)
Is there a way to recover the files in the ramdisk directory?
