Account reaper removes the data from the deleted accounts in the background. A reseller issue a delete request on the account’s storage URL that will mark the account for deletion. It will change the status column of the account_stat table in the account database to DELETED, specifying the account will have to be deleted later. There is no retention time and undelete option. The reseller will make those decisions if they want to delete the account.  To protect the account from mistaken delete requests, we can set a delay_reaping value in the [account-reaper] section of the account-server.conf to delay the actual deletion of data. Well, there is no option of undelete currently. We have to update the account database replicas directly, setting the status column to an empty string and updating the put_timestamp to be greater than the delete_timestamp.
