Hi, I using this script for backup. Then I copy backup folder by rsync to another computer. Can any one give me advice how to set the script to backup to another computer directly. I dont need two same backup on two PCs. I think I will do that by scp?
I am trying to restorade dir by: ./back-res.sh dir /var/vmail/domain.tld 2013-04-06 /tmp and I get: ./back-res.sh: line 575: /tmp/tmpbck/maildata: No such file or directory So I whant restore backup to /tmp not in that folfer above. Abyway if I create folde /tmp/tmpbck/maildata I get: Null message body; hope that's ok
From the script: # To restore dirs make sure you have the full backup from that month and use: # `back-res dir /etc 2009-11-23 /` # to restore the "/etc" dir from date 2009-11-23 to root # `back-res dir /etc 2009-11-23 /tmp` is used to restore the "/etc" dir to /tmp # # `back-res dir all 2009-11-23 /` # to restore all directories from date 2009-11-23 to root Note: You try to restore /var/vmail/domain.tld this dir was backed-up? or it was /var/vmail or just /var ? Try: ./back-res.sh dir /var 2013-04-06 /tmp but this depends on your settings. P.S.: You can safely ignore the /tmp/tmpbck/maildata error - it's a file used to send mail to you...
THX go0ogl3 but I found where was problem. Before I dont understant that. If I backing up /var/www folder and in that folder have another folder lilke: var/www/web1 var/www/web2 var/www/web3 var/www/web4 Than I can´t restore folder var/www/web3 but I must restore folder var/www, what I have set in config part of script. am I right?
Question To restore complete /var folder is little bit risky and time consumed if i only wanna restore one mailbox /var/vmail/domain/user.There's only way then change script backup directories and add /var/vmail ? but then are double backups /var and /var/vmail. Any ideas how to develop script to more comfortable ?
Couldn't you just stipulate exactly what you wanted in /var to be backed up to prevent double backups? For example instead of backing up /var try to backup the following: /var/vmail /var/www /var/*whatever*else* I haven't tried it but tonight I had issues with not being able to restore just my /var/www folder, so now I sit and wait for the whole /var folder to be restored... Nice script, but a bit clunky. P.S. I haven't tried this myself, no warranty given
Anyone able to provide me with help in restoring data? Little background: I use the backup script on my main server running on a VDS debian. I have a mounted folder /backup that uses ssh to securely mount a remote directory on my home server at /backup as well. It works fine. I can see everything is there, log is updated, etc. Now the issue is that my internet between home and the VDS sucks, so uploads are maximum 70kb/s more like 50kb/s ... yes I know Australia's internet sucks My question is if I use the script on the hosted server like its meant to be: ./backup.sh dir /var 2013-09-01 /tmp then it tries to extract the backup to my hosted server. Also if I try this: ./backup.sh dir /var 2013-09-01 /backup/tmp trying to utilize the backup to be stored on the same server as what holds the incremental backups, it goes slow as well. So is there a way to irrespective of where the backup came from, working on the home server run some form of backup script restore locally? Hopefully someone can wade through my dilemma... I will definitely be changing my script to use sub-directories because all I want is a fraction of /var and currently its 4GB of data I need to extract... thanks in advance
hi but this script works also for transfer ispconfig from PC A to PC B ? and the account and password who create ispconfig?
Hi, I try to run this Script on a Debian based server but get the following Errors: what can I do to fix this problem?
Script runs without error but files are not restored Guys I have a huge problem. After a server crash I have reformatted everything and resetup ispconfig (this time with dovecot instead of courier) I am running the script to restore my backups and I get all jobs done etc but NO files at all are restored. I even tried restoring in /tmp so I can see the exact files but there aren't any. Any ideas?
