Hi,

I want to install and configure Jetbackup with Ansible Playbook.
How can i do this?

I specifically want to automate the acceptance of the license agreement and the Feature Showcase.

In which file does the feature showcase complete the operation?

Thank you in advance for your answer.

Hello Lightingers,

It is possible to automate this using JetBackup API commands. Please see the commands below to approve the license agreement, reset JB config (if necessary) and accept the feature showcase on a fresh installation.

Code: Select all

jetapi backup -F approveAgreement
jetapi backup -F exitDisasterRecovery ## For Fresh Installation
jetapi backup -F exitDisasterRecoveryKeepData ## For Installations with existing/imported JB config
jetapi backup -F approveShowcase -D '_id={SHOWCASE_ID}'

To list the showcase(s) that need to be approved, you can use the following Jetbackup API command:

Code: Select all

[root@server ~]# jetapi backup -F listShowcase
success: 1
message:

  version: 4.0.22
  tier: STABLE
  type: cPanel

Hi,

Thank for your answer.

But im stuck again.

I want to set this schedule :
jetapi backup -F manageSchedule -D 'action=create&name=daily_last_5&type=2&typedata=1'

But came back with this message:Invalid schedule type data provided. (Valid dayily value is between 1 to 7)

What do I do wrong?

Hello Lightingers,

Thank you for getting back to us!

We can see that the syntax wasn't correct, and it appears that our documentation for the manageSchedule API command was not accurate for this parameter. We will be correcting this and apologize for any confusion caused.

Please see below for the corrected API command:

Code: Select all

 
jetapi backup -F manageSchedule -D 'action=create&name=daily_last_5&type=2&typedata[]=1'

# To add multiple schedule types (Daily Schedule, Run on Sunday and Wednesday)
jetapi backup -F manageSchedule -D 'action=create&name=daily_last_5&type=2&typedata[]=1&typedata[]=4'

If you have any other questions, please let us know!

Hello Lightingers,

I can see that the API command you provided has a minor typo with the "schedules[]" parameter. (schedule needs to changed to schedules) Also, I made a minor correction to the time parameter to "0100", assuming the intended scheduled time was 1am.

Code: Select all

jetapi backup -F manageBackupJob -D 'action=create&name=daily_last_5+weekly_last_5&backuptypes=127&destination=5f7de84eab8cee6deb0795a2&filters=5f6caaa9fb0b014fb97e3e92&flag=1&limitaccounts=0&maximumruntime=0&loadpausetime=240&loadpauserate=20&retrytimes=0&monitor[ranfor]=2&monitor[notran]=2&options=0&performance[ionice]=1&performance[renice]=1&schedules[0][_id]=5f86b55e2b4f983afd482fb2&schedules[0][retain]=5&schedules[1][_id]=5f86b55e36c13623ec1aa7d2&schedules[1][retain]=5&time=0100'

Please let us know if we can be of further assistance!
