Softaculous: To use, or not to use?

Hi jelv

Many thanks, interworx is a lovely control panel but works differently to CPanel and allows server admins choice.

The backups should contain a rolling 14 day daily backup. The exact time of the actual backup is not within our control as it runs but goes into a backup que on the R1soft servers. These backup are outside of UK and we use R1soft as an external provider but it is fully integrated into the control panel, so you only see your backups, including databases.

It is entirely up to you if you want to  backup manually yourself or dump databases. If downloading from R1soft backup, this is not using our resources

Importing packages into softaculous is your choice but depends if you have altered any package code away from default in terms of upgrading but if using purely for backup, should work and it is another backup outside of R1soft and any you make.  You can never have enough backups.

For R1soft backup, login to your siteworx account, click R1restore, access backup, then on the list shown, hover your mouse over the 4 right hand side icons, so you see browse folders, databases etc. to download or restore, you just browse to what you want to restore/download and click go

A warning though, the restore process does not delete any files, it overwrites them so if you have been hacked say, the restore will not remove any files the hackers may have set, so in that case, it is best to fully delete all files/folders from the HTML folder, and then restore

I hope that helps

Many thanks

John
