Backup and Restore

[prashantbhushan]

Dear All,
DirectAdmin provides the facility to take the system backup on remote server. Is there any facility to restore the same ??

Thanks,
Prashant.

No unfortunately there isn't. Restoring a DA system is a nightmare and can take an entire day depending on how many users you have.

Or as little as an hour or two if you know what you're doing.

I've posted several times on these forums as to the issues involved.

You should really do a few dry runs before you need to do it. You'll get very fast with practice.
