Am i right to say that the database backup option is not available via admincp in VB4?
in ver3.8.4, i'm used to do backup via admincp
this is the other options that's available ( thanks to this thread https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=227933 )
MySQLDumper:
Can be found here: http://www.mysqldumper.net/ & Special Thanks to FF|Skyrider for the reminder!! http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showt...=1#post1840565)
1. Follow the information on installing it, run a backup and test a restore. Simple enough and secure using htaccess although I still find BigDump (listed below) to be easier.
BigDump:
Some host though have timeouts or limited sessions in place as mentioned above so you attempting to restore it will never work unless you use something like BIGDUMP. Here is some more info on automated backups (do this when you have time) which has links for BIGDUMP so you can upload a large Database.
1. See the info below, I like to give credit and that's where I found the reference on google.

however, they only backup the databases, not the template files, plugins or other modifications.
In joomla, there's joomlabackup that backs up everything from databases to all files in the root folder, which i find it really useful.
is there an equivalent method in VB4 ?
