Download GDrive binary

# For x64

wget -O gdrive https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1Ej8VgsW5RgK66Btb9p74tSdHMH3p4UNb&export=download

# More versions:

https://github.com/gdrive-org/gdrive

Move and Permissions

mv gdrive /usr/sbin/gdrive
chmod 755 /usr/sbin/gdrive

Authentication process

To generate the authentication URL just run:

gdrive

# The client must paste the link in his browser. Accept the permission and you will get a verification code. The client must copy the verification code and give us back to paste it into the shell "Enter verification code"
# We have installed GDrive in CWP and connected it to his Google Drive account.

Make a remote parent folder

# Alternative One
The client must go to his Google Drive and create a folder. Then, go to the folder. Now, look at the URL. At the end of the URL, you can see the folder’s path.

Example 1Qaz_xExWqnZV0kIlhV335crKGUMh3wnI is the token folder. The client must give that token.

# Alternative Two
Simply run:

gdrive mkdir <folder name>

This will return the token

Directory 1Qaz_xExWqnZV0kIlhV335crKGUMh3wnI created

Upload a single file **RECOMMENDED**

Example:

tar -czf "/tmp/test-backup-$(date '+%d-%m-%Y').tar.gz" /backup/daily/<user>
gdrive upload --parent 1Qaz_xExWqnZV0kIlhV335crKGUMh3wnI /tmp/test-backup-99-99-9999.tar.gz --delete

Upload multi files and subfolders **NO RECOMMENDED - TOO SLOW**

gdrive upload --parent --recursive 1Qaz_xExWqnZV0kIlhV335crKGUMh3wnI /backup/daily/<user>

Sync folder **NO RECOMMENDED - TOO SLOW**

gdrive sync upload /backup/daily/<user> 1Qaz_xExWqnZV0kIlhV335crKGUMh3wnI

Notes

• With the above commands you can create a custom cronjob that executes backups unattended.
• If a file that already exists in the Google Drive folder is uploaded (doesn't apply to the sync command), it isn't overwritten, it creates an exact copy.
• If the synchronize folder (sync command) is used at least once, it can no longer be used with the upload command.

[tested with CWP7 in JUNE 2019]

This instructions are only for the backups on the remote server.
To Enable remote backup in your CWP.admin go to CWP Settings --> Backup Configuration

You will need to enter the login details into the fields of "Remote Backup Settings"
Don't forget to generate the new remote access Key.

On the remote backup server you need to add the pub key
cd ~USERNAME
mkdir .ssh
chmod 700 .ssh
nano .ssh/authorized_keys
Now add all content from the file /root/.ssh/backup/id_rsa.pub to .ssh/authorized_keys
chmod 600 .ssh/authorized_keys
chown -R USERNAME:USERNAME .ssh
chown USERNAME:USERNAME .ssh/authorized_keys

You can use test connection button in CWP.admin to check connectivity with the remote backup server.

To connect and check content on the backup server you can use ssh key access:

ssh USERNAME@SERVER-IP -i /root/.ssh/backup/id_rsa -p 22
