Uploaded backup file doesn't show
Hi,
I've uploaded a backup file from another server to /home/backup so I can restore the data to a new server.
Unfortunately, the file does not appear in the backup list, either via CLI (v-list-user-backups admin) or via the web control panel.
How do I get VestaCP to see my new backup file?
Thanks,
Adam

Re: Uploaded backup file doesn't show
If you want to see the backup in the list, you need to edit some config files.
You can restore the user via:

Ok, so judging from the backup.conf file, backups can only be restored via the control panel IF they've been created on that server. To restore a backup from another server requires a CLI command instead.
Am I right?

Half-right, you can add info about your backup to file and press restore button. But of course much simpler use CLI command.missionaryman wrote:To restore a backup from another server requires a CLI command instead.Am I right?
