The ready cloud is now back up and running but there appears to be no way to restore the snap shots of the home dirs as they were deleted along with the users :-(

I used daily snap shots of the home dirs to ensure that I could get the files back

When a share is deleted, the snapshots are deleted as well.
Snapshots protect against e.g. accidental file deletion/modification. There are a whole range of problems that snapshots won't help you with. Backups are a crucial part of any strategy to protect important data regardless of which devices you use.

You are my backup of Inportant data. It is unacceptable that a failure on your end can just wipe data off of so many systems.
Really unimpressed !!!!

Is the data not mirrored on the system to prevent against things like this ?
