Hello,

I want to do some settings in the jetbackup via the jetcli command. For example, I've tried to edit the "gziponsql" setting from the performance setttings page:

Code: Select all

root@server1 [/etc/jetapps/apps/jetbackup/exclude]# jetcli backup -P settings::performance
Key                   Description                              Value

The commands I've used are:

root@server1 [/etc/jetapps/apps/jetbackup/exclude]# jetcli backup -P settings::performance -V manage
The file /usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/docroot/jetbackup/views/settings_performance_default.php is missing!
root@server1 [/etc/jetapps/apps/jetbackup/exclude]# jetcli backup -P settings::performance -V manage settings::performance
The file /usr/local/cpanel/whostmgr/docroot/jetbackup/views/settings_performance_default.php is missing!
root@server1 [/etc/jetapps/apps/jetbackup/exclude]# jetcli backup -P settings::performance -V settings::performance manage

Can someone point me in the right direction with some examples?

Thank you.

Hi,

You need to send the entire settings of the affected page, or else they will be "zeroed" (I know it's annoying, we changed that in JetBackup 3.2)

Here is an example from the "settings::performance" page. In this example I changed 3 values -
gziponsql, rsyncbwlimit, queueactive. All the rest got 0 value since I ignored them in the API command.

API command example -

Code: Select all

jetcli backup -P settings::performance -A save -D '{
	"gziponsql":1,
	"rsyncbwlimit":2048,
        "queueactive":1
}'

Output example -

Code: Select all

#jetcli backup -P settings::performance 
Key                   Description                              Value

ioniceactive          ionice-Active                            0

I hope it's more clear now

Thanks,
Eli.

Hello,

Thank you for your reply. The command works perfect on numerical values (like 0, 1, 30 and so on), but I cannot seem to get it to work on paths. For example, I tried setting the timezone to "Europe/Copenhagen", but I didn't manage to get it to work. Tried it like this:

Code: Select all

jetcli backup -P settings::general -A save -D '{"timezone": Europe/Bucharest}'
jetcli backup -P settings::general -A save -D '{"timezone": Europe\/Bucharest}'
jetcli backup -P settings::general -A save -D '{"timezone": "Europe/Copenhagen"}'
jetcli backup -P settings::general -A save -D '{"timezone": "Europe\/Copenhagen"}'

After I try to set the timezone via the jetcli command, the entry for the timezone is empty:

Code: Select all

[root@myserver ~]# jetcli backup -P settings::general
Key                      Description                           Value

clearcachetime_ampm      Scheduled-Clear-Cache-AM/PM           am

I am currently encountering this issue on all the following entries:

timezone, workspace_path, clearcachetime, clearcachetime_interval, clearcachetime_hour, clearcachetime_min, clearcachetime_ampm

One other entry that I've tried to edit was on the Settings -> Notifications page. If I try to edit the email address that should receive email, it doesn't add anything and all the rest entries are reset to "No":

Code: Select all

[root@myserver ~]# jetcli backup -P settings::notify

downloadnotify  Download-process-Notify     0    
cronnotify      Daily-Cron-Notify           0

Let me know if you need any other info.

Thank you.

Hello,

I see that a problem has been solved. Issuing the following command now sets the correct workspace path:

Code: Select all

jetcli backup -P settings::general -A save -D '{"workspace_path":"\/home\/jetbackup_restores\/"}'

But the thing that it does is it resets the timezone settings and puts it to "PHP Default timezone". The timezone can still not be set through the jetcli utility.

Thank you.

Hi,

Seems like there is indeed an issue specific with the timezone.

I've opened an internal case for our developers (JB155), please check our changlog occasionally to track the progress -

https://docs.jetapps.com/jetbackup/changelog

Thanks,
Eli.

Hello,

Thank you for opening an internal case. I am replying just to make sure that my problem was understood correctly. This doesn't happen only on the timezone entry, but for example also on the "mysqldump_max_packet" entry:

Code: Select all

jetcli backup -P settings::performance -A save -D '{"mysqldump_max_packet":1024}'

After issuing the above command, all the settings::performance page is reset to 0 value for all other entries.

Thank you.

Hi Havri,

Thank you for the followup

There will be major changes in the API system, so keep track on our changelog.

Thanks,
Eli.
