I wish to make a proper guide how to create a backup for centminmod+wordpress using rsync for a specific domain . I would need your help as well in order to solve any doubt or errors for my guide.

What we need : 2 VPS a client and a backup

1) Open a SSH and check for updates on both machines

yum check-update

2) Let s install the rsync on both machines

yum install rsync

3) Let s install the sshpass on both machines

yum -y install ssh rsync


4) We put pwd on the ssh
pwd

5) We put mkdir archivesclient
mkdir archivesclient

5) We create the script

vim /path/script_rsync

and we put this content in it


#!/bin/bash
#script for syncronization
sshpass -p 'passServer' rsync --progress -av -delete -e ssh root@192.168.1.66:/path/server/ /path/client

Passserver = password of the server
192.168.1.66 = your IP
path server = the origin of the files
path client = the destination of the files
6) We are giving it permissions

chmod 777 script_rsync

7) We must create the first conexion of both machines

ssh root@192.168.1.66
192.168.1.66 you must put your IP

---

8) After that we must exit from the machine
exit

9) After that we activate the script

./script_rsync

10) Cron activation

$ crontab -e
11) we put the hour of the daily back up example for 10PM


0 22 * * * rsync -av --delete /Directory1/ /Directory2/
12) after configuring press
:wq
13) @eva2000 should double check it if this fits on centminmod and make the corrections from any doubts/incorrect information about this guide to set a rsync on centminmod with wordpress website

@eva2000 COuld be possible to make a domain backup if in the centminmod i have 2 or more wordpress websites ? What i must specify in order to do it ? Thanks hopefully this guide would be beneficial for all of us doing our backups .

I am sorry if there is something wrong on the guide information . I have made all the best . Kind regards !
