[HOWTO] Backup and Restore complete Domain

[petzsch]

Actually your mails aren't stroed binary. They are plaintext stored in Maildir structures in /var/mail/virtual/domain.tld/emailuser

But still I prefer to do that manually. Use backup-restore, change dns setting and after the dns changes are active, rsync the old mails in the new mailbox.

This script is really helpful! Thanks a lot!

There's one thing, though, that would be a really nice addition: having a way to backup every domain with a single command!

hi can i use for domains on "1.0.0 Priamos" to "1.0.3 OMEGA" or higher?

This way we won't have to ask our clients for their passwords. If i have to backup ispcp through this script (which seems the best way so far to me), but the system is not working or ispcp is just down, we won't be able to change the domain passwords, and it wouldn't be a really good thing having to wait for all the clients to send their passwords in. Ispcp does indeed have a wonderful backup capability but seeing the target of this script are system admins, i would really reccomend adding a backup-the-whole-thing option. I am already planning on switching to this script instead of using the client's backups in their domain folders, having such a feature would speed things up immensely!

Should be possible. Take a try

[rycardo74]

Hi Im try backup-restore Rev.3129. on a "1.0.0 Priamos"
with debian etch
PHP 5.2.0-8+etch11
when i try this
#php backup.php domain.com passwd

I get this error
Fatal error: Call to undefined method Config::set() in /var/www/ispcp/backup-restore/includes/boot.php on line 13

[tomdooley]

Argh, ok... Seems 1.0.0 is rather too old. The Config class is missig, so backup cannot find database login informations. I suggest to update first to a newer (newest?) version.

And don't forget the patch supplied at http://isp-control.net/ispcp/ticket/2410 ;-)

Thx. config.ser format is only a simply serialized variable. See http://de2.php.net/serialize

Thx :-)
