    Hello,

    We use the new cPanel backup system with amazon S3.
    We have one server with a colocation plan. This plan allow us to use 15mb/s. We can use more but we paid for extra mb/s.

    My question is how we can limit the bandwith(mb/s) for the backup process when it upload the data to amazon s3?

    For example, if we want to assign just 3mb/s to the upload to amazon s3, what we need to do?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello :)

    There are no native tools included with cPanel/WHM that allow you to shape traffic to a specific speed during the backup process. Using rsync with a specific flag would require a custom backup script, as it's not an option you can control through cPanel/WHM. You are welcome to search for and utilize a third-party applications for this functionality. You may find the following thread helpful:

    Shaping Traffic

    Thank you.

    Would a backup of the cPanel partition be enough if mysql upgrade goes wrong?

    With cPanel backups disabled can you still get an account backup?
