Not so long ago I had a customer who experienced data loss after MySQL restart. It was really puzzling. MySQL was up & running for many months, but after the customer restarted MySQL server all tables have gone. The tables were still visible in SHOW TABLES output, but they were not readable:

mysql> show tables like 'actor';
+--------------------------+
| Tables_in_sakila (actor) |

“Wait, why? how?” N1

From select it is also allocated 16G:

mysql> select @@innodb_buffer_pool_size/1024/1024/1024;
