Does It need cpanel?

[Divvy]

Hello guys,

Just one newbie question...
I have one dedicated server and I want to buy a new one, but only for backups.
Do I need a cpanel in that new server only to receive backups?

Thanks!

You can simply use the bare system for FTP backups.

And dont tell me you bought a hexa / octa core system for your blogs

@Divvy

if you dont know how to do that Just Contact SP.
or Use google.

Its easy also you can automate it, means bacup will be create automatically in 24 hours or XX hours , XX days etc.

Hi buddy,

Thank you for your reply!
I decided with the 2x Intel Xeon E5-2420 :-)

Btw, whats the better OS? CentOS 5 or 6?
64 bits recommended right?

You took 2x Intel Xeon E5-2420 for bacup :facepalm:
and CentOS 6 64Bit is fine.

Bacup server need much space than Cpu, or RAM

 

[Divvy]

No lol, E5-2420 is my main server

For backup server:
AMD Athlon 64 3000+
512MB DDR2
1x160GB SATA2

Have low RAM but I think is enough right?

 

[wedge1001]

for backup this is way enough ram.
but are you sure 160GB is enough to backup a few revisions?

 

[Host DZire]

Yah as i said for bacup servers Storage is needed.
because if you will do bacup daily then it will be hard to manage in 160GB.

Note sure about size of your Bcaup. if its 3-4GB daily then its ok

Thank you guys!


Maybe someone can help me choosing a backup server from here:
Outlet Store - LeaseWeb
Or VPS: Virtual Server - LeaseWeb


I need to pay the less possible.
All my websites have 100GB in total.


What do you suggest me? Server + OS


Thank you guys!

Budget ?
its depend on price you want to pay/

and daily bacup ? or per week ?

 

[Divvy]

Budget hmmm the less possible... Im looking for something cheaper. Im already paying lots with main server, dont want to pay much more. Lets say hmm 20, 25?

I think week backups is enough

Hello,

Check Below :- Kimsufi : le serveur dédié pas cher !
And :- Le serveur dédié Soyoustart - So you Start

-----------------------------------------------
And this :- OneProvider - Dedicated servers in Paris, France

In Leaseweb i dont like anyone with that price.

Google backupsy and get sme from there, think they still have their 250gb @ $7/month

 

[.:Raymond:.]

https://www.datashack.net/dedicated/ <---- Go with them for a backup server.
The offer really cheap dedicated servers. Their network isn't exactly the fastest though compared to Leaseweb's. (you get what you pay for)

Thank you for your replies guys!

you do not need cpanel at all. If you do not want to make ftp account in ssh you can install some free panel for it and inside it create ftp account.
