How do you restore a backup manually under debian?

• Run putty. Log on as root. Go to the root of your server with the following command:

cd /

• Create the folder for the backup

mkdir backups

• Go to the backups folder then :

cd backups

• Create a new file using the nano command

nano fullserver.sh

• Then specify the following:

tar -cvpf /backups/fullbackup.tar --directory=/ --exclude=proc--exclude=sys --exclude=dev/pts --exclude=backups
