A few months back I decided to activate the backup feature on DirectAdmin. That was until I noticed it was doubleing my "allowed disk usage" (of course). The problem is that after I surpass my maximum usage allowed the system refused to let me upload any longer (of course). So I would like to turn it off and everytime I attempt to do so it never works. It just restarts itself to backup even after goin to the Site Backup section and unchecking everything. As soon as I exit that section and come back everything is checked again. And I would like to permanently turn it off, instead of having to go in and manually deleting the saved backup every few days and then having to wait for the server to allow me to upload once again. It's an very annoying repeating process. :( Can anyone help me?
 
Hello,

1) Remove the cron jobs. Go to the backups page and scroll to the bottom and remove the backup cron.

2) If you want to prevent Resellers from seeing the page, you can change the backup option in Admin Panel -> Admin Settings (have to remove all crons first)
