Backup Strategy
Hello,
We've started to use vestacp latest version recently and everything is working well. However, I've a couple of questions for my backup strategy.
1- How can I change the backup to run weekly instead of daily for all users ?
2- I am using a "Syncback pro" located on a windows machine to backup all files located on /backup. However, I am getting "Permission denied" when trying to copy the files because of the permissions even when using a root account. I can copy the files with the admin account. Is it possible to create an account to copy the files instead of the admin ?
root@webserver01:/backup# ls -l
total 417716
-rw-r----- 1 admin admin 142561280 Jun 21 05:10 admin.2016-06-21.tar
-rw-r----- 1 admin admin 142561280 Jun 24 01:10 admin.2016-06-24.tar
-rw-r----- 1 admin test2 20480 Jun 21 05:10 test2.2016-06-21.tar
-rw-r----- 1 admin test2 20480 Jun 24 01:10 test2.2016-06-24.tar
3- When I try to configure FTP backup using the command v-add-backup-ftp-host remote.ftp-host.ltd backup-user p4ssw0rd from here https://vestacp.com/docs/#how-to-configure-ftp-backup I got this:
v-add-backup-ftp-host: command not found
I even looked at /user/local/vesta/bin and I could not find the v-add-backup-ftp-host file.
Please advise,
