Deploying a dedicated backup server (R1Soft)

 

If you have multiple servers or one large server, managing your backup needs on a dedicated server is a cost efficient way of protecting your data.

 

Aside from cost, benefits include:

 

A separate agent for each server, allowing for custom settings.

Easy-to-use software; R1Soft Server Backup Manager.

Compatible with cPanel

Pre-configured or customizable solutions with hard drive and RAM upgrade options.

High-capacity efficiency

 

Both KEKhost/KEKhosting clients and outside servers can benefit from KEKhost's R1Soft dedicated backup solutions. Servers outside of the KEKhost/KEKhosting network can be backed up on an off-site, dedicated backup server.

 

Configuration

Once your machine is purchased, KEKhost/KEKhostng customer service will contact you. Please be prepared to provide the following information:

 

Ten-character ID or virtual machine IP of each server you wish to assign to the dedicated backup machine.

The Operating System(s) and versions for each machine.

Is MySQL or MSSQL installed on the client server(s)?

What are your preferred backup configurations (Frequency & Starting Time)

 

Our technical team will configure the client server(s) within KEKhost/KEKhosting's network to the backup server and confirm with you when everything is set up per your desired settings.

 

External Servers (non KEKhost/KEKhosting Servers)

 

If you have external servers, please follow these instructions to install and configure the backup agents:
