They all make it seem like this is impossible, and they never do it. Just lost a server and despite repeated conversations about having back ups, it turns out they never did it. WTF??? I have a copy of a service ticket with me asking for them and offering to pay more. They closed the ticket 30 days later and did nothing. Long fucking day coming up.

hmm.. I've never had a host that made it seem impossible or who didnt do it nightly.. So I'm not sure how to answer this.
Jam in a backup tape and click go I'd say.. Swap tapes each night so you always have 1 good backup should do it.43-922-863 Shut up and play your guitar.

National Net has a beautful system for backing up entire servers and it works well.
Some of the websites I've put on line have taken years to create and would be nearly impossible to recreate. Also, if your hosting all of your databases with sales information backups become extremely important. Most of that information would be impossible to recreate.

as long as you can provide a root access for them backups should be no problemComment

I have 4 dedicated servers with them. These are managed in that, they were told i was an idiot and they had to do everything. We have a trouble ticket from August requesting backups and telling them I would pay more if I had too. The ticket was closed and obviously they never did it.
We are rebuilding the sites from google cache as best we can. Fucking nightmare and staff over time etc. this is going to suck.Comment

Things like this happen when you cheap out on hosts, they still need to make a profit though ;) All decent hosts perform at least weekly backups, it's not a hard thing to do since you only need a 2nd drive and mirror the accounts to them. It's very important, what will you do if their shared server gets hacked or if the drive crashes or so? If your host is a liar, charge back and get a new one, it's your business they are playing with.Last edited by keyDet79; 02-20-2006, 08:40 AM.
