And the Unix filth did it. Without moving files to trash can. And there is no way to get anything back, because WORSE IS BETTER and the the shitty Unix unlinks everything even when filesystem has enough free space. Why? Why Unix cant die and be replaced with a good OS?

The journal receiver-the container into which OS/400 writes its journal entries-is a true audit trail: no one on the system can manually modify its contents, so there's never any question about its accuracy. You can, however, display the contents of the journal receiver anytime. Inside, you'll discover a surprising number of different types of entries, including a time stamp, a user ID, a job ID, and (if the journaled object is a database file) a picture of the actual record after it was changed. You can also configure the journal receiver to maintain a picture of the record before the record is changed.
If you ran a server that contained anything valuable, what would you rather have: OS-level file journaling that protects against accidents and malevolence, or rm -rf * .oops? No malware for either OS/400 or VMS has ever been discovered in the wild.
