Please be forthcoming with and complete about information you share. The more relevant information you post the more efficient it is for us to help you.
- Most importantly: is this a Production environment or some expendable machine?
- Are backups made regularly, at what interval and is the restore procedure documented and tested?
- What files did you delete exactly?
- When did you delete them (aka how long have you been trying)?
- What kind of machine is this: physical hardware, virtual machine of which the host is under your control, cloud-based or what else?
- What kind of Out Of Band access / colo hands options do you have?

But it did not restore it. besides the fact that i cannot unmount/remount that partition since its a remote one .

The reason you can't umount it probably is more because this is the root file system.
