    Hopefully this is not for a problem which has already occured. A
    solution would be to do zfs filesystem snapshots whenever important
    data has changed or at a high enough frequency that the probability of
    loss before backup is marginalized.  Otherwise there is no assurance
    that the deleted data remains.
