I have a 1GB MySQL database (compresses down to 300MB) and would like an automated method of backing it up to a remote server. Both accounts are shared hosting accounts (if it matters, both are running CPanel, no shell access on either).
I have a tiny MySQL database (10MB) and I'm looking for some remote backup service. Someting that will backup the database and let me recover it if the host is in trouble.
I strongly prefer something simple and fully automated.
Due to LayeredTech price hike, i'm going to cancel my server with LT within two weeks.
Does anyone know an easy way to backup all the domians and mysql database in FreeBSD/DirectAdmin? Is there a built in feature in DirectAdmin that can do that?
Having problems with failed daily domain backups. All databases that have been created by Plesk cannot be backed up, thus backup fails with the following message:
why but autoupdate fails. It doesn't give a reason why it cant backup.

I'm new to Parallels Panel. I use version 11.0.9. I want to backup mysql database daily. First of all, what is the best way for daily database backup in plesk. I'm trying to do this in Scheduled Tasks and I use mysqldump command although I'm not sure.
I chose the time and day first and then I switched on the task. I typed the following command to Command line.
This created only a blank file. When I use this without gzip, nothing changes.
1- Is mysqldump right command for database backup? 2- Should I define full path for mysqldump, gzip and database? If so, how can I find out the full path of mysqldump, gzip and my database? Because I can't see their locations in panel. 3- I can't see any error message. There is not any log file in httpdocs folder. Where does the log file exist? 4- It is weird but should the username be "database user" or should I write "root" ?
PRODUCT, VERSION, MICROUPDATE, OPERATING SYSTEM, ARCHITECTURE Plesk 11.5, 11.5.30 Update #44, last updated at April 30, 2014 03:25 AM, Centos 6.5 (Final), Linux 64bit
PROBLEM DESCRIPTION When I try to add an extra MySQL server, running on a different server, I always get an error that the user has no admin access. But the user I created does have admin access to the database. The remote database is a MySQL 5.5 on a Linux Ubuntu 12.04 LTS server
STEPS TO REPRODUCE Tools & Settings -> Database Servers -> Add Databases server
ACTUAL RESULT Error: Test connection to the database server has failed because the supplied account does not possess administrative privileges: Access denied for user 'admin'@'%' to database 'd536cedf97037e'
EXPECTED RESULT A working database connection.
ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION These queries are logged by MySQL:
If I just ignore this message, go to a subscription and create a database, then the database gets created just fine. It's just Plesk that thinks that something went wrong.
backup service for my dedicated server that can do the following:
Take backups of the server without my laptop being involved when the backup takes place.
(So I can take a vacation for two weeks and have my laptop turned off - while backups still taking place).
Strangely I have found it impossible to find such a service ... All services I have looked at require my laptop is turned on and running some software while backup of server is takeing place.
I see option to setup remote Mysql server in WHTM but wonder can i connect 2 servers through private network then fill in Remote server address something like 192.168.1.2. If it is possible it would save me a lot of bandwidth for both servers.
