I have about 800GB of data to transfer, both servers are using DirectAdmin.

Using Rsync To Backup An Entire Server

Mar 12, 2007

The backup program (cpbackup) that comes with WHM/Cpanel is not ideal for our current situation. We have lots of third party applications installed on our server along with many customized configuration files. We need a solution that will backup everything and allow for fairly simple restoration.

How viable is rsync for full server backups? Can it handle 100 GB of data?

More importantly, how would you restore the backup to a new server? If the new server already has an OS the restored files would break the system, right?

Run Rsync To Sync A Folder From An FTP Server

Jul 9, 2008

I want to run Rsync to sync a folder from an FTP server - which I have limited access too with my server.

1. Do I have to have rsync installed on the server with the FTP too, as I won't be able to do that as it is not my server.

2. Is Rsync easy enough to get up and running and set it to run every 24hours?

Which Folders Should I Exclude From A Whole Server Backup (Rsync )

Nov 10, 2008

I am going to backup the whole server. (Rsync)

I understood it is not efficient to backup the local "backup" folder to avoid duplicated backups.

1. Should I exclude additional folders from the backup process?

2. I noticed it is familiar to exclude the "proc" folder also ... Why?

Rsync Some Files From Windows To A Linux Server

Mar 28, 2007

At work, we have a windows 2003 server.

We have a set of files that get modified from day to day.

Since they know I own a dedicated server (Linux) they ask me if it would be possible to have an offsite backup on my server of the set of files on the windows 2003 server.

Also, I dont want to have the whole files set to be uploaded everyday.

I am aware of rsync on *nix system, but do you have any suggestions on how to proceed with a windows 2003 server to a unix server?

Cpanel Or Rsync?

Dec 7, 2008

I am using BQbackup to auto backup my CPanel VPS and was wondering whether it is best to use CPanel's own backup service which automatically backs-up the vps daily or should I use the rsync script that bqbackup provides?

Which is easier to restore and more reliable?

RSYNC Tutorials?

Apr 12, 2009

Looking for an RSYNC tutorial, something that focuses on backing http data, exporting the databases then transferring offsite to a receiving rsync server once a week.

Something that's understandable and logical would be great, happy to work through over the next week and continue more in depth with it.

Rsync Instructions

Aug 2, 2006

I have been trying to setup rsync on my server and following these instructions

http://www.bqbackup.com/setup.html

The problem is I keep getting errors.

On this step,

ssh-keygen -t rsa -N

I edited it and did ssh-keygen -t rsa --N becauseI got an error saying it need the '--' before the N.

So after getting through that part, I got these questions asked

Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
Enter same passphrase again:
Your identification has been saved in /root/.ssh/id_rsa.
Your public key has been saved in /root/.ssh/id_rsa.pub.
The key fingerprint is:

I left the passphrase empty, and then when it asked where to save to, I just typed in 'rsa'. Then it gave me some fingerprint.

Then I get to the step,

# scp ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub yourusername@yourusername.bqbackup.com:keys/server1
# ssh yourusername@yourusername.bqbackup.com mergekeys

But I get errors saying

-bash: cat~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub: No such file or directory

I dont get what I'm doing wrong. If somebody doesnt mind, can you please re-write the steps on getting this working, or maybe tell me where I am going wrong if the tutorial is correct?

Second Time To Run Rsync?

Jul 8, 2007

one day later, if I run the following command again, the command is same as the one run by the first time.

rsync -avz username@IP:/home/asite/public_html/ /home/asite/public_html/

does it mean rsync will just check and copy the newer folders and files from the last copy?

Rsync And Cron

May 5, 2009

I have a bit of a strange problem, I have an rsync command setup in the servers crontab and from the cron log it show it ran the command but the files don't copy to the backup server. If I take the rsync syntax and run it manually all the files copy across with no errors, but I can't figure out why the cronjob doesn't work properly.

Rsync And Passphrase

Apr 25, 2009

I'm trying to configure rsync to backup my vps data to an rsync backup provider.

The problem that I am having is that each time I try to run rsync it prompts for the passphrase.

I did some reading and it seems (and maybe this is not correct), that in order to do unattended rsync (e.g. using cron), that you need to use a key that doesn't have a passphrase generated.

If this is the case, is it true that it's not a good idea to use a key that doesn't have a passphrase?

Rsync Setup

Jul 17, 2009

I am in the process of setting up a cronjob so I can run rsync automatically every day.
But I want to know is it ok to exclude the following folders?

/home/.cpcpan/
/home/cpeasyapache/
/home/src/ <!--- This folder I made to put files in before I install
/home/MySQL-install/
/home/.cpan/

As from what I understand cPanel/WHM makes these folders, and there no user data in these folders

Rsync Backup To NAS Via FTP

Apr 7, 2008

I just signed up with Rsync Palace for remote backups 2 days ago. Otto and Darin at Rsync Palace gladly helped me out and actually ended up setting me up for free. It's really an inexpensive price to pay for a little additional piece of mind to have a remote backup.

I have a VPS with cPanel that has NAS on a private network. The way they set it up was for Cpanel cron job to create backups of my VPS and place the backups in a /backup folder off root; Daily, Weekly and Monthly.

Then they have Rsync via cron set up to take those backups to the remote Rsync Palace server daily.

I still want to maintain backups on my NAS in the datacenter. (cPanel will only backup remotely or locally, but not both.)

In addition to Rsync securely transferring my data to Rsync Palace for offsite backups... How can I set up Rsync to ftp the same /backup data across the private network to the NAS? (Only ftp is available via the NAS.)
