Cpanel full backup not working or stopped. My site have 9Gb

I cant do Cpanel full backup for a site that have 9Gb Disk used (2Gb of them are mysql database, the rest are files), i use dedicated server






i had try do Cpanel full backup for smaller site in same server and its works normally (get about 8Mb) tar.gz file backup


Please help guys, what should i do to make Cpanel full backup working for that big enough site

Try to do it in batches instead of one big package. The size of your database makes your script probably time-out.

Thanks for your sharing, i am very confused that why do you get heave mysql database, 2GB is very huge, you could compress it.

hi,
IIRC, the account must have enough space on it, to create the backup, on it.If the account has plenty of space, did you leave it enough time to finish?While the backup is running, those 13 k files are normal. On that test you did on another account, start the backup and then check that account, you'll find those same size files.

A common feature in cPanel. You should think of other backup strategies like rsync which is incremental and not such a huge resource hog.

As the previous post said do it in batches instead of doing it in whole sum
