How Do I Back Up Individual cPanel Accounts From Command Line?
To back up individual cPanel accounts from the SSH command line, type this:
|
1 |
/scripts/pkgacct <cpanelaccountname> |
You can find the username when logged into your WHM and searching “list accounts” and you will want to replace <cpanelaccountname> above with the actual cPanel user’s name.
You can also restore a cPanel backup from the command line by typing:
|
1 |
/scripts/restorepkg <cpanelaccountname> |
You will want to replace <cpanelaccountname> above with the actual cPanel user’s name.
This will take a full cPanel backup in your /home directory.
