first of all i don't know where to post this, so if this is in the wrong section, any mod can move it to the right section .
what i need is, trusted remote backup space for websites.
i googled and found many, but i would love to know who is trusted and who isn't .
i don't need massive space, around 10-15 GB and about 100 GB monthly traffic .
How I can import my backups from remote backup space to my VPS.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI would like to weight the benefits and costs of using remote backup and local backup to another hardisk? Let's assume the price is the same.
What's the benefits of using remote backup?
Is it secured to use local backup in another hardisk?
I'm running on linux centos.
What happend if hacker get hold of my server?
Currently, i have 80GB of diskspace. Does it mean i will need at least 80GB of ANOTHER hardisk to backup that?
Does any reliable hosting company that offers hundreds of gigs space allow "personal backups", ie. non-web content? I've been looking at ToS of some big names but most if not all don't allow this.
It would be only 1-2 gigs, so I might get away with it anyway on most hosts, but would like to avoid problems in the future. Dreamhost offers both SVN and rsync, which I'd like a lot, but they clearly forbid such use.
And, I do have an external hard drive and very important files are also on DVD and memory stick, but since I need to purchase webhosting I'm looking at this extra option too.
i want to ask about best companies that provide backups spaces

Dedicated or Managed servers with PHP, MxySQL and so on.
What I need is (big) pure backup space which must be at least
accessible by (reliable and pretty fast but not absolute ultar-high-speed) ftp server (which supports resuming of ftp-sessions).
Needed space: 200 GB
Traffic per month: 200-500 GB (can be at night)
(only) Nice to have (but not absolutely required):
- TLS/SSL Encryption for ftp
- 2-5 more ftp accounts (sharing the same space)
- crontab and perl scripts
- WebDav
I am moving one of my sites to a dedicated server and I need a good place to back up too.
I don't need much space a GB would be more then enough as what I'm backing up is only about 250mb currently.
Does anyone know of a good company that offers FTP backup space for a real low price.
I changed the DUMP_TEMP_D directory in psa.conf.
I have set it on /var/backups and given the permission 1777.
I have rebooted the psa service and initialized the backup again but it always returns that error.
Moreover, if I run the command df -h, the tmp directory doesn't appear.
Whenever I am trying to take backup through Parallels Plesk (Plesk version:12.0.18 Update #53) getting an error "Error: Insufficient disk space for backup. "
Default backup location is '/var/lib/psa/dumps' with enough space (Near 1TB). Then why showing above error message?

I have a linux dedicated server and use BMU (BackMeUp) for create cpanel full backup.
But this cant create remote backup for me. BMU use "ncftp" for this. and i see following error about this problem:
Time: Fri May 16 03:38:17 2008
The following list of files have FAILED the md5sum comparision test. This means that the file has been changed in some way. This could be a result of an OS update or application upgrade. If the change is unexpected it should be investigated:
/usr/local/bin/ncftp: FAILED
So, im install "ncftp" manually, but issue not resolved and i havent remote ftp backup too!
How can resolve this issue?

I have already developed shell scripts to automate account management, add/delete users, change quota, passwords etc. I am now working on web interface which will be used for managing the accounts, testing some free scripts and writing tutorials.
So far, my scripts can create chrooted (jailed) accounts with some basic shell commands.
The same disk space is also configured in samba and rsync daemon. Customers can use ssh/sftp or simply mount it as a network drive. Free utilities for Windows users (like deltacopy) work just fine with rsync daemon. Script can also modify iptables-based firewall and allow only certain IPs to access the server but I am still working on that part.
It takes about 10 seconds to create a new account and I have tested it on CentOS server.
I'm thinking about buying a shared hosting plan with lots of space. Anyone do backups to remote ftp server instead of rsync? I was wondering if it was possible to configure ftp in such a way to only transfer files that are NOT present on the remote ftp. This way, it doesn't overwrite existing files and thus save on bandwidth. Is it possible to transfer an entire folder with a ftp command, I know the mput command is for uploading multiple files to another location. Lastly, what are the advantages of rsync over ftp besides saving banddwidth and trannsferring only files that were changed?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI noticed that when "WHM Remote Backup" backs up my websites via ftp, the tar.fz archives are incomplete, meaning the backup is pretty much useless. I have tried with both PASV on and off and it still persists.
Any ideas why?
Also, what is the command to force the whm remote backup to run?
What exactly do you do when you take a remote backup through resync?
For instance, if i signed up with say bqbackup and started resyncing and taking backups, would i be copying all the data from my server to the remote server or is it possible only to copy the cpanel backups made daily/monthly/weekly to the remote space?
Also, when the resync runs everyday, does it replace the old files or does it create a new copy of everything that has changed?
How much local disk space is necessary for a full backup of 240 GB data to a remote ftp?
I have 314 GB free on my local disk, but this is still not enough.
The backup process is 100% after round about 4 hours, according to Backup Manager.
But there are still tar processes until the disk is full.
What's the best way to do a remote backup? Right now I have them all being backed up to a 2nd drive on the server.
If I do a remote backup, is it just as easy to access the files and do a restore?
I am using BQbackup since 10 months ago without problems. But in the last 6 days the transference rate is very slow (3kB/s). I already sent some emails to Scott but I dont receive a reply. So I need to have a look in other alternative to store my backups.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI've been exploring two possibilities.
1) Have a backup server in the same physical location as the main servers. Then have automated backups occur, through a local network. The benefits of this are obviously a) No bandwidth fee's b) Total control over data instead of relying upon a third party c) Faster transfer speeds.
However, that doesn't really help when it comes to disaster recovery etc, so, some sort of remote solution would probably be best.
2) Have a remote server in a different datacentre.
There's two ways of doing this, either by renting a server in an a different datacentre, and having remote backups that way (probably with Rsync), OR paying for some third party service.
I'd be interested in your input on what you think would work best and be most cost effective.
It appears that my clients disk space usage calculation is including admin full server FTP backups that I am doing.
This shouldn't be the case, these full server backups that I'm doing should not count towards my clients plans disk space allowance.
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 run cpanel on centos,
and i backup all websites and system setting to the 2nd hd by whm's backup feature everyday,
i want to ask if any script or method i can backup all the files to another server in a period of time,
it may be a week or 3 three days...etc,
remote backup in Europe with rsync/ftp access. If possible, in the UK.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI have recently had to set up all my backups again (add me to the ranks of disappointed bqinternet customers). I choose to go with Handy Networks - and I am SO very happy I did. The got all my servers set up quickly and correctly, but the most impressive thing was the communication - it is one of the best support experiences I have had in this industry. Not only on the initial set up, but even the questions i had afterward - they went above and beyond in their answers.
I know companies get ripped all the time on here for bad support - just wanted to give a little praise!
