My whole server including the operating system, all settings, databases and files are backed up through bqbackup every night - its only $5 a month and not much bandwidth (you would expect many Gb since its the whole OS etc.) since it only backs up what has changed.

My cron job backs up the cPanel account and dumps it every 3 hours

My hosting co says they do a daily backup, so I hadn't done one till tonight when I got miffed at them.

I did a full backup from cpanel to my desktop. Cpanel said something about not being able to do a restore with those files, but I guess they can be used to start over.

If you want to restore a site from a cpanel backup, with the associated databases email addresses, etc.., you need to have a "Full" backup from cpanel and restore that backup using the restore a ' Full Backup/cpmove File' in WHM.

If you restore a "home" backup from within cpanel you will not get the mysql databases, email addresses, mailing lists, subdomains, and addon domains.

If the account you want to restore is located on another server you can also use the transfer feature. Which basically creates a full backup, transfers the backup to new server and performs a restore.

Hope this helps

mirrored backup - 0sec

Everything is sync'ed with another server setup for backups only.

That can be a bad thing. Any corruption would be synched automatically onto the other server.

Every 24 hours automatically starting at midnight (all sites on my server) and dropping it to my 2nd drive.

A few days ago was the last time I made a backup of my forum. It's one of those things that I semi rarely actually get the chance to do, but I usually do so before a major change (major modification, major vBulletin release).
