Hi,
I'm with Jodohost for a long time (my first customership was I think around 2002-2003) and I'm happy with all services but I want to make a fresh start to my reseller account , therefore I wish to create a new reseller account on Cluster2 . ( I have some spare domain names and will use one of them as the service domain of my new account , then plan to build up things on the new account step by step )
Non of my (so-called) customers are paid , so I will not have any billing issues and/or service downtime arguments from customer side . I mainly use my reseller account for my projects and host some friend sites (mainly related to aviation / virtual aviation) .
Most of the sites I host use Joomla and/or MySQL databases , some of them directly user/customer controlled and I do not have any control on them (I log-in via my reseller master account if they need help) .
Now I'm in the process of cleaning the plans , deleting non used and emtpy db's , removing non-used customer accounts etc.
Then I will start backing up user/customer uploaded site data but have some thoughts on this move , I can download files via FTP but how can I make DB backups of forums and/or Joomla sites .
In the past I worked as an IT guy , I was familiar with MsSQL DB's (mostly SQL2000) and as may you have know if you stop the services you can completely backup a db as files (db and the log) , is this possible with MySQL ...
Any suggestions / tricks / need to knows about moving to cluster2 and backup process will be great .
( And if I can get a direct support from Jodo Server side I think it will be fantastic )
Thanks for the replies ...
PS : As expected I'm not a pro on MySQL , but you can think me as an advanced user with an IT background of 15 years
