Should We Have Raid 1 Or Should We Have A Backup Drive
Oct 29, 2007We are limited with a maximum of 2 drives per server, with a maximum of 750gb drives.
We are thinking of going with 2 500gb hard drives. However the question is, should we use the Secondary drive with Raid 1 and let our VPS clients worry about their own backups or should we instead just use the secondary drive as a backup drive and backup each VPS nightly?
CPanel Server Backup Drive
May 3, 2008After adding a second drive mounted as /home2 for backups I attempted to use the cPanel "Configure Backup" and I get the following message.
Quotas cannot be built!
Your cpbackup destination is on a filesystem which has quotas enabled.
Please move it to a filesystem which does not have quotas turned on
or a separate partition/disk slice mounted at /backup.Backup has been
disabled to prevent quota problems...
All searches on how to resolve this really reveal no solutions.
I did a google search on "disable filesystem quota" among others and could
find nothing.

Jul 4, 2014My hosting company is offering to sell me backup space which will be mounted as a network location. e.g. /usr/local/backup
My question is how would I use this since Plesk seems to be configured either to use an FTP location or to use the server repository. Would I have to change the location of the server repository to this network location? This doesn't seem ideal.

Automatically Purge Backup Files Off Thumb Drive
Apr 20, 2007we have a thumb drive attached to a CentOS (linux) box and mysql backups are automatically saved to the thumb drive. Is there a way an HOW to automatically purge backup files if they are older than say 15 days? I suppose I would need to write a script for this and place it in the cron scheduler.

Data Lost , But Still Have Old Home Drive , How To Copy To New Drive
Jan 26, 20071- i did Os Reload with new Hard drive for "home"
2- data "backups" drive lost
3- replaced the old home drive as "/old drive"
4- " /old drive " is now the secondry drive in my server and it has the all sites usres and evry thing
5- what i need , to trasfer, copy this sites from " /old drive " to "home"
but data center said
The /olddrive/home directory contains the contents that were previously in the /home directory. You can copy files from this directory to any other directory on your server.
The command to copy files in the UNIX environment is the "cp" command.
The user directories in /olddrive/home directory contain the web page files for the users. However, simply copying the contents over will not recreate the users or domain entries in DNS/httpd. If you wish these back you will need to recreate them manually or restore them from backups.
Drive Corrupt, Recovery From 2nd Drive Mount
Feb 16, 2007Primary drive (centos/cpanel) is corrupt
The server is displaying these errors when I tried to do an FSCK:
Bad inode IO
ext3-fs error (device(8,3)) IO Failure
I am having a new primary installed and old primary set as 2nd drive. I need to recover the cpanel domain accounts from this 2nd drive after I mount it with the method below:
mkdir /backup
mount /dev/sdb1 /backup
However, how do I actually recover these accounts in an automated process via whm? I've done this before with the same matter (corrupt primary drive, mount as 2nd, etc) but cannot exactly remember the proper steps.
How To Copy My Current Drive Contents To A New Drive
Dec 28, 2007I just purchased a brand new 10K 150GB drive. How can I take an exact copy of my current drive and transfer everything over to the new drive? I think I need to create a snapshop, or mirror it somehow.
What software will do this? I was told trueimage, but its very pricy, is there anything else?
Drive Corrupt - Should I Ask For New Drive Or Reimage
Jul 9, 2007I have a dedicated box and I started getting Input/output errors today.
I tried:
# fsck
fsck 1.40-WIP (14-Nov-2006)
e2fsck 1.40-WIP (14-Nov-2006)
/dev/hda2: recovering journal
fsck.ext3: unable to set superblock flags on /dev/hda2
then I tried:
# fsck -a -t ext3 /dev/hda2
fsck 1.40-WIP (14-Nov-2006)
/dev/hda2: recovering journal
fsck.ext3: unable to set superblock flags on /dev/hda2
My data is backed up, so was going to ask for a reimage, but is this an indication of bad hardware? Should I ask for a replacement drive? Is there anything else I should try on my own before going to the host?
Mirror Drive A > Drive B
Feb 6, 2007I have a Win2K3 server which has 2 hard drives. I was considering backup options and I thought that I might try mirroring Drive A ==> Drive B. I would think that, then, if Drive A has a hardware failure, I could simply switch Drive B into the Primary slot (A) and the server would continue to hum along as nothing has happened. This would reduce the downtime, hopefully.
I have 3 questions.
1. Is this idea practical (will it work)?
2. What is a good software program to use fto handle the mirroring?
3. Any considerations, warnings, technical advice in regard to this method?
Plesk 11.x / Linux :: Download Backup To Local Computer From Backup Manager
May 17, 2015I have multiple backups stored under server repository (subscriptions --> <domainname> --> website and domains --> backup manager).
The physical files are located at: /var/lib/psa/dumps/clients/904279/domains/<domainname>/
When I click the green arrow to download these files to a local computer (see attached image) I get a new page with title "Download the backup file". On this page I have the option to set a password on the downloaded file, but no matter what I do (password or no password) the file is not downloaded to my local PC. I don't get a pop-up box with the option to save the file. Just nothing happens ...
Plesk 12.x / Linux :: Backup And Quota - Limit Number Of Cores Backup Zipping Tool Uses?
Aug 15, 2014I have 2 problems:
Firstly I wonder if there is any possibility to limit the number of cores the plesk backup zipping tool uses? This pigz takes up all my CPU. Is there any way I can reduce the amount of cores it uses because all my websites are down every time a backup takes place for around 3 minutes.
Secondly I get the following in my syslog:
1 baby plesk sendmail[20189]: Error during 'check-quota' handler
I don't know what is wrong. I think it's since the upgrade to Plesk 12. I now have 12.0.18 Update #13.

I have 6 x 72gb scsi 10k hds, and perc4 raid in server. My os will be Cent os with 4 gigs of ram installed. I want to try to make this server as redundant as possible.
