Any idea when cPanel is going to allow backups to be restored remotely from SSH/FTP/S3/Wasabi/Rsync/Hetzner Storage Boxes.
I have JetBackup 5 working on some servers, but the initial index takes forever, so god help me if ever needed to restore all accounts to the server. Before the backup starts JetBackup starts doing some indexing stuff which I guess is due to using its own indexing system. it is so slow even when using 3Gbps on a powerful server with the latest CPU/mem. Luckily, I have Acronis on them too which is 1000x faster.
Yet, when I use the default cPanel backup system to do compressed backups it is very fast! But the trouble is we cannot easily restore accounts using WHM. You have to instead restore the backups back to the local server first yada yada yada.
I prefer to use cPanel backup system because it's easier/better for recovering data. JetBackup 5 is ok and workable for small backup/restore loads but too complex etc for larger workloads, IMO.
Also, I use Acronis which is very fast, but full server recovery is not possible on a certain server, due to hardware used that is not compatible with Acronis. That's why I was having to use JetBackup, but even that is not good for this server.
I want to use cPanel backup system to backup/restore accounts whether full compressed backups or rsync.

With all the recent price increases, cPanel should focus on their own backup/restore system and stop messing with themes. Paper_lantern was the best ever. There was no need to change it, IMO. If anything, it looks like WebPros wants cPanel to look more like Plesk so eventually can merge them and have all users use Plesk instead? I hope that is not the case...
