If I download a full backup, what are included in the full backup ?

1. subdomains?
2. add on domains ?
3. all sql databases ?


How do I setup that back up to another server ? What are the steps.

Thanks.


*****  EDIT *****

Can I just upload the full back up and extract the zip/tar backup directly to my new server ?

OR

I should do the "Restore a Home Directory Backup" ?

Full backups are made mainly to be able to move the site from server to server. It has everything needed to make your account exactly the way you left it

To restore one, the root user (or someone with root) has to go to "Restore Backups" in WHM.

Or if you dont have any sql and just have a basic site then you can just find your public_html in the tarball and extract that to your account.

@ Eli

Are website accounts hosted differently in vlexo.com and vlexo.net ? Or are they residing in just one server ?

** EDIT **

@ Eli

I sent you a private message.. Do you need passwords for those .com and .net accounts ?
Thanks.

vlexo.com is/was hosted at imountain.com. Everything else we have including vlexo.net is hosted on our Quad server at WT.

So you want your backup moved to your other account? Just give me the username of the account you want it copied to.

this is a sad day...very sad...

Sent you two private messages Eli.. There is a complication regarding WHM account  between the two accounts.. there is WHM website from the source backup... and there's no WHM in the account where backup files are to be transferred..

** EDIT **

and the subdomains too.. I have 11 subdomains in the backup.. and I'm just limited to 10 subdomains in the backup destination.. can you increase the subdomain limit for now... I will just delete the unused subdomains later in the nobeedoo destination... then you can revert it to a limit of 10 afterwards..

Thanks.

Thanks Eli.

UPDATE 2: I was just told to tell everyone to make backups but not to leave. Even if Jon cannot pay for the server "Vlexo has an investor" and there is a 90% chance that Vlexo can be saved.

man, thank you...that is by far the best news i have received...coz i never wanted to leave...

when do we know that vlexo will remain as it is?

Hold that "overwrite" private message I sent to you earlier.. It may not be necessary, given the latest update above..

Thanks for your help Eli. Greatly appreciated.
