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.
