I succeeded recovering something with xfsprogs 3.1.8, but no more than
1GB of data (~5%).
Fortunately I managed to save some precious config files, considering I
had a 6 months old backup the disaster is a bit less catastrophic.
I had a bad time replacing corrupted data from the other ten ext4
virtual machines, but they didn't give me too much troubles compared to
xfs. How ironic that the data loss happened during the installation of
the backup system...
To be honest I don't know if I will use xfs anymore, unfortunately I
need per-directory quota and it is the only viable solution.
