Hello,

My server crashed and won't boot using hdd. But if we attach drive to another server we can see it.

We have setup new server with CWP now. How can we recover data using this crashed hdd

If you attached drive to the new server then what issue you are facing?

santo

I have installed cwp panel on the new server. Added old drive as a secondary drive

How do I restore accounts now?




santo

Will it create accounts on the server automatically?

I want to do bulk restore as there 100+ accouts

bullten

No it will never create. If you have made backup of accounts already then try to copy in backup folder and see if it recognizes it.

I have taken daily backup in the backup drive and mounted this backup drive but when i try to restore it dropdown don'e show any users.

is there any command to restore the account from the backup?

bullten

did you try copying the backup files in /root/backup folder. keep it unchanged. No there is no command to do that

santo

did you try copying the backup files in /root/backup folder. >> yes but no luck

bullten

Looks like to restore backup one must have user account already created. You need to create all accounts one by one with the same username.

Well yes this is not the right way but what we can do. All depends on developers.

Allow backup of all accounts including databases same as cPanel and also restore multiple accounts from this backup same as cpanel
