Backup

Enabling backup for a server 

  1. Click Plugins > Acronis Backup. 
  2. Enable the backup switch. 



  3. For cPanel server backup, a backup plan with the specific configuration is required.
    1. Encryption should be disabled.
    2. Avoid exclusion. Otherwise it will dramatically slow down mounting\recovery process. 
    3. Do not change the parameters described in "Configuring a backup plan for a cPanel server" (p. 15). Otherwise, granular recovery in WHM and cPanel UI will not work. 
    4. Do not apply to the cPanel server other plans that do not meet the above requirements. Otherwise, granular recovery in WHM and cPanel UI will not work either. 
When you enable backup, the plugin attempts to find and apply a suitable backup plan. If several plans are found, a randomly selected one is applied. If no suitable plans are found, the default backup plan with “Webcp” name is created and applied to the cPanel server. 

If you want to change the backup schedule or other parameters of the backup plan, do this in the Acronis web console.

  2. Click Run now. 

 Accessing the backup console 

  1. Click Plugins > Acronis Backup. 
  2. Click Go to backup console. 
    The backup console opens in a new page. In the backup console you can adjust backup schedule and other backup parameters.
