The Filesystem Backup module (fbu) simplifies the administrator's job of keeping an offsite backup of the files that make up a Drupal site. The module will send the administrator a series of uniquely numbered archive files (zip, bz2, tgz etc.) that together make a complete copy of your Drupal files.
Features
- Mails an entire backup of the document root to the administrator in chunks. The maximum size of each chunk is configurable so that restrictions on email attachment size can be observed.
- Works in batches (cron) so that the drain on system resources can be controlled. The frequency of the backup process is configurable.
- Can archive files to many popular (zip, bz2, tgz) archive types.
- Can be configured to backup the entire filesystem (complete mode), or only those files that are new or modified since the last backup (only new mode).
Dependencies
