Hi,
i’m trying to develop an alternative way to backup hestia users. At the moment the backup script takes 2 times the user disk space. For example, in a VPS that has a user of 100GB, it is neccessary to have a 300GB total disk space to avoind the “insufficient disk space” error.
My idea is to wrap some shell scripts:
dump databases locally
rsync to remote without using local file system
so first question: which folders do i have to include?
what is the directory structure to mantain on the remote unit?
second question: is there a safe way to restore back or migrate without using the tarball? Any idea on this?
If you don’t use HestiaCP’s backup procedure, you can’t restore sites using v-restore HestiaCP utility.
You will have restore all manually by downloading or rsync back to server
