Space required

Post by sercba »

Hello.

My own cPanel server is almost full disk capacity used.

Can I run 100% remote backups?

Thanks.

Hello sercba,

If your server is almost at capacity then we would indeed recommend setting up a remote destination to store your backups. However, this is going to depend on which backup structure you decide to use. For example, Compressed/Archived backup jobs create a temporary backup that is stored in the JetBackup workspace directory before transferring this backup to your remote storage destination. This means that you will need at least 2x the size of your largest account in available storage to use one of these backup structures. -----, Incremental backup jobs will send the data directly to your remote storage destination and thus do not have this limitation.

If you would like to read more about backup jobs you can check here: https://docs.jetbackup.com/v5.2/adminpa ... pJobs.html
