Automatically disabled backups that exceed predetermined limits

[cwalke32477]

I would like to know if there is a way I can set cpbackup to skip accounts that exceed a
size limit and/or inode limit.
Any suggestions?

edit-- I meant to put in automatically skip accounts, not the account selection tool

You could make it as a bash a script, But in cPanel there aren't any setting for that.

i would have no idea how to create such a script.
Know of any pre-existing utilities that would do such a thing?

Steps will be an array holding all usernames, then check for its' spaces, after that doing an if condition that tells if the size greater then or equal a fixed size then

touch /etc/cpbackup-userskip.conf
echo $USERNAME >> /etc/cpbackup-userskip.conf 

Hope that helps you in some way.

Thanks!
