I have 2 Windows VPS (the provider name does not matter) and as you may know most VPS providers recommed to backup on your side, because they don't take responsabilities on your data and their backup systems.
So my question is what backup software/procedure, would you recommend?
My VPS include IIS files and MySQL/SQL server database software/data, and I am not using any control panel.
Im looking for a shell script or something to do full backups of a live colo in NY and get everything up and running onto a new colo in Fl before we can kill the NY colo.
what would be the easiest way to go about this?
I’ve just switched to a deticated server. I have backups of sites I need to move over and restore. cPanel has a “Restore a Full Backup/cpmove” option. Two questions…
1) How do I upload the back up file to the /home directory of my deticated server?
2) If the backup file is under a current client “/home/clienta” how do I restore it?
I’ve also tried using puTTy to restore the file.
- logged into as “root”
- typed “cd /home”
- typed “/scripts/restorepkg domainname”
Have some very important questions regarding changing plesk ports and creating full backups.
1. When changing plesks port number, what exactly will it effect? Will it effect auto updates, etc.?
2. When creating a backup, I'd like to backup the entire server to rollback at anytime when changes are made to core files, is this possible?
3. With backups, somehow I'd like to schedule backups to possibly make nightly copies to an external hard drive on my computer for a fail safe method just in case the server happens to crash and I'd need to restore to another server/service. How would this be possible?
script that will backup full cpanel backups remotely. Can anyone recommend a decent script that will make daily/weekly backups using rsync to do remote full cpanel backups?
The script should set up rsync so that doing a restore is very simple with WHM restore backup option.
I've got a plesk 11 server and I've created a subdomain for a client but I need to have this as a full domain for the SSL certificate. Is there a way to convert a subdomain to a full domain without deleting the subdomain and creating a new hosting subscription?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a client that has a subdomain shop.xxxx.com. This subdomain needs its own SSL and own IP address for it. Right now its listed as a subdomain under xxxx.com. Also, the xxxx.com has another SSL and IP.
Since there doesnt seem to be any way to do this in plesk, I had to create the subdomain as a regular subdomain and then manually manipulate IIS to change the IP and add the ssl mapping.
If I try to add a new domain, it automatically tags it with the WWW.
Is there any way to just create a new domain without the www infront of it, so I can move shop.xxxx.com from a subdomain to a primary domain that stands alone...
I haven't played around much with the new iis 7+, but in older iis, you needed a dedicated IP for each SSL certificate.
I was wondering if i could use my windows dedicated server to download backups from my website on a daily basis? Maybe with a cron job or something...
Heres the setup:
Dedicated Server with windows 2003 - Want to use for downloading backups
Shared Server hosting my website with cpanel - Want to make backups of
I do wanted to know if there is any option to program plesk, so that it does separately backups of all sites instead of doing a globally backup of all things in one file.
I do not mind that people an synchronize their account with one of their ftp servers to do backups but what I do want is me also to do backups of all sites separately.
I expored my databse fom my old hoster and want to import it to my new Windows Server 2012 r2 vps Server but I can't find that option:
I found this link: URL....
my dashboard looks like this, it is missing the Backup Manager: Image: "dashboard.png"
how to make backups separately of all domains and clients, without going into their panel and configuring one by one?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've an issue when i tried to create a backup repository by the client control panel, The backup already created but it's not affected on the client disk space !!
It's put in Crogram Files/Paralles/Plesk/Backup/reseller/resellername/clients/domain.com
Now, I have critical disk space usage because the one client has schedule daily backups and it's not affected on his account usage!!
1- I've check for permissions and repair plesk database.
2- I've make repair quota.
3- Updated plesk

i dont know what is going on exactly
look at this 2 commands
Code:
root@host [/tmp]# ls -hl
total 92K
Code:
root@host [/tmp]# df

/dev/sda8 1019208 900620 65980 94% /tmp
how is that possible ls -hl shows thats the space used is 92kb
while df shows 65980 94% for /tmp
/var is almost full
I have my /var with 85% of capacity and i need to free some space, this is the print of a du -h --max-depth 1:

as you can see cpanel is one of the largest, do you know from where i can delete some files to liberate space of my /var?
I really need some help here. My /usr directory on my server is 95% full. Is there any change that I could change a space limit for this partition without OS reload? And if there is, how to do it?
View 14 Replies View RelatedToday I had MySQL and Exim both blow up on me. After some panicking I noticed that the /var directory was 100% full. I cleared out some old logs and got the server back up and running.
I wanted to ask you all how can I
a) identify what is taking up all the space
b) is there anything off the top of your head that I can safely delete?
The drive is 9GB so something other than just log files is filling it up.
and mysql couldnt restart and i got database error in my forum
how can i delete the non important in the /var/ section
Drive Critical: hda7 (/tmp) is 100% full
Drive Critical: hda5 (/var) is 91% full
Due to this, my cpsrvd keeps failing.
This might sound dumb, but how do I empty these folders via SSH/WHM?
/var seems to be almost full but the server has only been up a couple of days. Note that the only file that seems large is /named/chroot/proc/kcore but that is not really supposed to take any disk space ... it obviously is. Does anybody know what I should do to free up space here?

Once ago you people solved my problem, now once again i am here to get some suggestion from you since i could not find anyone else for help.
I have another server (Which is not under Your Management subscription), its /tmp DRIVE is 100% full.
I have 2 scripts which are same as "RapidShare.de or megaupload" FREE FILE HoSTING scripts... they use space in /tmp my /tmp is 496 Mb.
Because its full 100% so files are no more uploadable via scripts. So my scripts are not funsctioning at the moment.
So i thought to get a suggestion from you people
is that possible to increase the size of /tmp ? like to 20 GB etc or if NOT than could you please tell how to empty /tmp folder (coz i think all files in /tmp used by SCRIPTS are USELESS after the USER uploads or downloads the data.) so could you please suggest..
I have two dedicated servers..
On one of my servers, its 100% full and my 2nd one it's /dev/sda6 (/usr) is 89%.
Can someone tell me what partion on a linux based server this is usually used for, and the steps by ssh I can do to clear it out?

Anyone have any ideas what we should be cleaning or a good script that might help?
seems 5.5gb of data is in /lib
What is safe to delete from /lib and why is it taking up so much space?
