AWS S3 backup for Vesta

aws-vesta-s3.md

Before doing all this you have to create a bucket in your AWS console. Or just use AWS cli tool in order to create one.

• Install pip (if not installed already):

$ curl -O https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py

• Install AWS cli tool:

$ sudo pip install awscli

• Configure AWS cli tool:

$ aws configure
AWS Access Key ID [None]: <YOUR_AWESOME_KEY>
AWS Secret Access Key [None]: <YOUR_AWESOME_KEY>
Default region name [None]: us-west-2
Default output format [None]: json

• Backup old file, then open and edit Vesta command v-backup-user:

$ cp /usr/local/vesta/bin/v-backup-user /usr/local/vesta/bin/v-backup-user_backup
$ sudo nano /usr/local/vesta/bin/v-backup-user

• Somewhere in Variable&Function section add:

# AWS arguments
bucket=s3://<your_awesome_bucket_name>/$user/

• Search for # Creating final tarball section and right after this line chown admin:$user $BACKUP/$user.$DATE.tar add new code:

# AWS UPLOAD
aws s3 cp $BACKUP/$user.$DATE.tar $bucket --storage-class REDUCED_REDUNDANCY
echo -e "$(date "+%F %T") AWS: Uploaded and backed. $user.$DATE.tar"
msg="$msg\n$(date "+%F %T") AWS: Uploaded and backed. $user.$DATE.tar"
