Backups

Do you backup your VPS!?

If so, how do you backup?

[Sharky]

I don't. I would if there was much worthwhile backing up, and... was actually planning on using the VPS *as* a backup! Haven't managed to set it up as a Samba or CIFS or whatever server yet, though.

I back up very extremely rarely so I voted that I don't need one. I don't have anything important enough on my VPS to back it up (yet) :P.

[nastus]

I backup atleast once a week just incase i mess something up :O

[The Real Rebel]

Just backed up :P

I have a rather complex backup system consisting of a number of PHP scripts and Cron Jobs.
Basically: MySQL databases are optimized and backed up daily and my "public_html" folder is backed up weekly. These backups are then FTPed to a network harddrive at my house.
I also use the backup system in HyperVM to do whole system backups weekly.

So far I've never had to use my backups... *touch wood*

It's "knock on wood" not "touch wood"

[Jarryd]

Touch wood in Australia. And i've never backed up yet. Once again because i have nothing of major importance.

It's touch wood where I come from.

Speaking of backups, anyone know why the ftp backups on zodiac no longer work?
