Hi,
I have a question - I have system (main) disk which have just 355 GB free space - and I have additional disks which have 3.5 TB - my backup will have probably between 350-400gb - I want it send remote to FTP but my question is - where is creating that TMP backup file before sending to FTP? I mean.... If I have system disk 355 gb free.... and backup will have 380 GB.... what will happen?
Is it possible to change TEMPORARY PATH (to some additional disk) remote backups?

I see you just found it as I was answering. Backup is created first at the local disk, so you should have enough space there.
Another solution would be to use rsync to send some stuff over if possible, or make smaller backups, like start with 10 domains, then do the next 10 domains and so on.
