Hello,

I would like to disable back-ups on my servers completely. We make a back-up every night and store the back-up for a week, so it is not neccessary for my users to make backups as we already make the backups. The backups my users and resellers make make the server slower and are unnecessary.

I know that I can turn off backups for users by clicking on "Administrator Settings" in DirectAdmin, but how do I disallow resellers to make backups?

Thank you.
 
Unless DirectAdmin adds control of backups as an option you'd have to create your own skin (you can use the DirectAdmin skin as a template).

Hello,

It's in the Admin Settings:
Code:
Admin Level -> Admin Settings:

[x] Allow a Reseller to Backup/Restore his Users.(Separate from User Backup/Restore)

Also, on that same page, set
Code:
Allow Users with less than 90% Disk Usage to create Backups. (0 = off, 100 = always on)
Set that to 0% to shut off backups for Users.

Is it possible to make it possible that users can restore backups but not make backups?
 
I believe that users can restore backups even if they can't make them, but I'm not sure.

However, users can only restore backups made by the user-backup function.
