Split large backups?

    I have a pretty large WordPress site – about 10G total. I’d also like to schedule automatic backup scheduling – I’m assuming this plugin will use CRON jobs? Will this plugin be able to automatically backup my site AND split the backup into separate files every gig or 2 gigs? I think my server has a 2GB limit on file size so I’d like to keep it to 1GB if possible. Also, can this plugin store the backups on my own server in a folder of my choosing? Thanks!

    Hi,

    We don’t currently support backups bigger than around 1.5GB so the plugin will not work for you unless you reduce the size down significantly.

    We do have plans to introduce 64-bit ZIP file format into the plugin (so we can create massive ZIP files of any size), but no plans for splitting the files into 2GB chunks.

    Regards,

    Jason
