Hello,

I know it sounds a little dumb but:

I would like to make the site backups on a second hard disk on the server.

I have noticed in the backup function of DA that there is a path to and from the files are saved/restored, something like '~/admin/user_backups'.

Is there a way to change this path in order to point to the second hard disk ?

Thank you.

Catalin

rm -r /home/admin/user_backups
ln -s /other/hdd/space/wherever /home/admin/user_backups

May work.

FYI, we'll be adding a simliar backup feature to the Admin level, which will also give you option to specify paths etc. l0rdphi1's method should work well until that time :)

Is this already done?
