If there are errors, then you might want to run that command a few times and see if the error count is still rising. Is it everything in the /home/online/sh/ directory that is getting deleted, or can you see any pattern at all? (it sounds like it is random from what you said...but hard to think of why files would be deleted randomly....as you know!)
