Also, when doing a lot of things at once, for example
backup/reinstall/restore... (Or even scarier, upgrade a VPS's OS in place,
remove several user accounts, replace one web app with another, and upgrade
WordPress -- you get the idea.) I've found it's a good idea to take things
slowly and reboot a lot. The Linux OS ecosystem has a lot of hidden traps
where you can seriously break your system and not actually find out until a
reboot or a power failure; an intentional reboot is a kind of smoke test
for that kind of user error or packager error because you find out pretty
soon after the failure occurred.
