This really isn't dangerous unless you already screwed up badly. If it wipes, you just restore from backup/DR.

You do have backups and a DR plan for your prod servers, right?

Didn't some company have a script running that would randomly kill stuff to always test redundancies?

I vaguely recall someone telling me that about netflix
