How can I disable Daily Backups? How for certain users only?
I searched for "Daily Backups" and get a result:
http://www.isp-control.net/forum/showthread.php?tid=524
But when I click on that link it tells me that the topic is not available. This happens a lot in this forum. YFI.
The missing Thread: this seems to happen with some older posts/threads - there was a data loss somewhere in summer
Since there is no gui to disable backups for certain users you may take the hard way: try renaming the backup folder for the no-backup users. I hope this should throw an error in the tar command and the backup is skipped :-)
Well, not great but it's maybe a solution...

Thanks, it kinda works, but in the /var/www/virtual/domain.tld directory will be a log file left and he starts doing the backup which uses a lot of cpu time and temporary space. So another solution would be appreciated
of course - a better way would be glad :-)
if you use gzip for backup instead of bzip2 then the cpu consumption should be far less

Is there a way to disable backups genereally? So that he wont start doing it for every client?
Oh, I was wrong. It does not work. This time he created a directory called "backup" and put the backup in there. Lets see what will happen when I put the directory into "read-only" mode...
You can of course disable the customer backup at all:
comment the right line in /etc/cron.d/ispcp and restart the dron daemon.
For a selective backup you have to add some code in the backup script itself.

I guess this is a much needed feature for after v1.0 is out. The ability to disable backup per user.
I changed /etc/cron.d/ispcp to
Quote:# Backup
#@daily root /var/www/ispcp/engine/backup/ispcp-backup-all yes &>/var/log/ispcp/ispcp-backup-all-mngr.log
#@daily root /var/www/ispcp/engine/backup/ispcp-backup-ispcp noreport &>/var/log/ispcp/ispcp-backup-ispcp-mngr.log
Then I did:

He is still making backups which causing my system to stop working because there is not enough space left.
What am i missing here?
Your Cron looks ok so!
But why did yo stop the ispCP Daemon ??
