I'm having trouble with backup. First the screen looks nothing like what's in the manual so I may be doing something wrong. It has a log saying that it performed the backup but I don't have a link to download the backup as the manual states. Where can I find it?
 
What skin are you using and from what level of access are you trying to perform the backup from?

Admin level.

I'm using the standard install. Backup doesn't appear to be covered at all in the admin level manual.
 
Only the user level makes the backup available for download with a link. All the other backups are stored in /home/username/user_backups
You will need to create an ftp account that has access to this directory or move the backups to another location such as the public_html directory to download them.

Edit: Correction, the reseller level backups are stored in /home/username/user_backups
Backups made with the admin level can be configured. The default is "$MOUNT_POINT/backup" which is most likely /home/backup

And if I want to use secondary HD for backup - how it looks like?
Or we need some different for full backup on separate disk?
 
You would simply change "$MOUNT_POINT/backup" to the location on your 2nd HD that you wanted to backup to.

For example, if you mounted your 2nd HD as /juanitomuchacho
then you could set the backup location to "/juanitomuchacho/backup"
