Web Hosting Talk : Web Hosting Main Forums : Hosting Security and Technology : How to backup a VPS with WHM

[Dorian]

<edit>Sorry, I wanted to post this in the "Technical Issues" section. Please move if you can Mod</edit>

Is there a way to backup a VPS via WHM?

I know I can log into each individual cpanel and back-up each account... but can I backup all accounts at once within WHM?

I have like 70 sites and I'm looking for an easy/reliable way to back them all up.

Thanks in advance for your help.

You could either login to WHM and setup the FTP backup or run the following from the command line

cd /var/cpanel/users
ls * | xargs -n 1 /scripts/pkgacct

Thanks for the help. Will this include the SQL databases in the backup?

How do you back up all of the data? Full backup.

Lets say there is a total server crash and I need to restore from MY local backup data.

Thanks.
