live site replication to a sandbox

[Ian Daniels]

Hi,

I have 4 accounts running through my CPanel at the moment

2 x live accounts
and
2 x sandbox accounts

How do I transfer data from the live site into my sandbox account so they mirror each other?

the sandbox accounts are listed as staging

Is there a easy way of doing this?

Hello,

There's no native support for data mirroring in cPanel/WHM. I encourage you to vote and add feedback to the existing feature request located at:

Server configuration and data auto-sync (mirroring)

In the meantime, you could try some of the manual workarounds suggested in threads such as:

Backing up cpanel and clients

Thank you.

So there is no defined way of doing this??

There's multiple ways to transfer or sync the files to a remote server (e.g. rsync), but no native functionality in cPanel/WHM that does it for you.

Thank you.
