Next the engineer cleared g-list, smart and regenerated translator. The engineer has checked the NGlist entries before and after the translator regeneration to make sure the translator regeneration generates positive result.

Next the engineer fixed the media cache issue.

Next the engineer opened the DFL-DDP data recovery equipment and set up one file extraction project, all lost data was perfectly recovered.
