Vesta Control Panel - Forum

Hi,

I have rclone mounted to ACD, so my backups just get copied to ACD. I have mounted rclone in the location to where the .tar files are created. However, vestacp creates tmp.* files, is there a way to define a location for the tmp folders to be created, as I don't want these uploaded.

Thanks

Some prob with backup, please check logs

/var/log/vesta/backup.log

I think he want create tmp in orther location, so, vesta create tmp then pack it if you have remote dirs this can cause problems in network

You can see this -> https://github.com/serghey-rodin/vesta/pull/1142

Do you have your Cloud Drive mounted on /backup ??

if so, this is wrong, as Vesta first makes temp directories here, copies alot of files, dumps dB and then compresses it into single files, finally deleting all temp folders.

What you should do is, unmount cloud drive... mount it as /cloud, then run a cron about 1 hours later than your VestaBackup is scheduled, that copies/moves /backup/* to /cloud

make sure to note time taken to backup, you should time your cloud move cron accordingly

hope this helps

ah thanks skamasle, have applied that patch that should do it.

No. /backup is the same, but I have changed the backup dir http://i.imgur.com/LEhUQjs.png.

That being said, /tmp dirs shouldn't be created in the backup location. Personally I'm +1 that github patch.

fix tmp dir for restore backup user
