Help for restoring

[zpnd]

Hello,

There are many backup in backup partition like mm-dd-yy directories that backing up by customer. The backups are directories -not tar.gz files- and each one include apache, bind, custom, mysql directories.

How can i restore one of the backups ?

Which backup program did you use to create the backup? Did you use what DirectAdmin calls System Backup? This is an implementation of sysbk. There is no such thing as an automated restore for sysbk. It backs up everything you need but leaves it up to you or your sysadmin to restore the backups. There's no simple answer, which is why DirectAdmin wrote and includes the Admin Reseller Backup utility.

For more information on sysbk (may or may not be the same version installed in DirectAdmin) you can read this post by the utility's author.

We have experience restoring from sysbk backups, but it can be very time-consuming, and therefore very expensive.
