Introduction

This article describes how to install JetBackup on cPanel servers.

Note: JetBackup 4 does not support CentOS 8. If your server is running CentOS 8, you will need to install JetBackup 5, which will be made available in the JetBackup stable tier once cPanel version 94 reaches the cPanel edge tier.

 

Procedure

  1. 1. Purchase a JetBackup license in the cPanel Store.
  2. 2. Log in to your server via SSH as the root user.
  3. 3. Run these commands to install the software:
  4. yum install http://repo.jetlicense.com/centOS/jetapps-repo-latest.rpm
yum clean all --enablerepo=jetapps*
yum install jetapps --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=jetapps
  5. 4. Run this command to install JetBackup in your preferred tier (replace stable with edge or beta to use either of those tiers instead):
  6. jetapps --install jetbackup stable
  7. 5. Access your server's WHM.
  8. 6. Navigate to Home » Plugins » JetBackup.
  9. 7. Accept the EULA.
  10. 8. Select Fresh Installation.
