Is there anything useful on john to be backed up?
I've never seen that server before, I didn't have my ssh key added to it, 
I don't have a user on it. It was shut down but not deleted, so it was 
billed as if it had been running the whole time.
I changed the root password on it and managed to log in. I only see some 
old docker images but no containers.

I'm pretty sure we can delete servers and services. I do have such option 
in the rackspace UI.

I'm sure it can. I created a new database user to be able to back up the 
'cloud' database I had no access to before.
