Disable backups for one domain or subdomain?

Major7

Is it possible to disable backup for particular websites?

I want to migrate a Nextcloud instance with huge data. The /var/www directory is a monted volume where is enough space an is still backupped externally . The /backups directory would grow so the whole disk would be full.

I thought about moving the backup role of that site to nirvana (not supported) or set the immutable bit to /backups/xxx directory or symlink /backups/xxx to /dev/null or something?

Major7 you should be able to migrate the website without selecting backup server if this helps

Major7 or set the immutable bit to /backups/xxx directory

Yes, this is how we do it. We shared a guide about it on the cPFence community. Just immute that dir and you’re good to go.

Unfortunately, backups are still made even though the “Allow backups” checkbox in the package is not checked.

I think all websites are backed up, this checkbox only determines whether the customer can see the backup tab or not.

It's on the roadmap.. right at the bottom (at this time anyway):

Backups Exclude websites from backup. Exclude directories from backup. Incremental backups using other storage kinds (FTP/SSH).
