Yeah - an automated offsite backup is a must. It's impossible to trust provider backup services, because they won't take any responsibility if they don't work. I love updraft's very flexible schedule and incremental features too.
You're right.
unfortunately, I can image as it’s classified the mess in my book, as with any migration the IPv4 addresses and data should be the same - current data state.
Yes, JetBackup helped me to restore 4th Aug 2:00AM data but lost 15 hours data after the last backup.
Yeah for personal hosting I would love to use Updraft Plus, but as a hosting service provider it could be a nightmare sometimes. If all users use these backup system, it may cause extra load on the server.
However, I found a solution of this issue, I recommend my users to use Softaculous backup system. It has its own backup system with many options such as FTP, Dropbox, Google Drive, S3 etc. Which is not resource hungry.
Yes. They did it before, but since they started other locations their support becomes pain in the ass. However, I want to move out from this shitty company as soon as possible. I am going to start a new thread please help me to choose.
Thank you guys. Your are so helpful and concerned. However, I am going to start a new thread about moving out from Contabo as soon as possible.
Please help me to choose and suggest me the best possible way to get out from this company.
Thanks
What's the point of starting a new thread? All the relevant information is here!
Glad to hear you were able to recover a majority of your data!
Yeah, Softaculous backup is also nice
here you see, how important/valuable your data is to you. they are exactly as much worth to you as you "cannot adjust the cost" - so what's there to complain about measly 15h of data?
I asked because Contabo randomly formatted my VPS and installed Ubuntu. I was running Debian with custom disk layout with xfs + btrfs partitions. I think their buggy system thought I had invalid OS and just reinstalled it automatically. Thank god, I didn't have anything valuable.
