Michael Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 I think it would be cool to have a Idera module where you can connect it up to Blesta and be able to sell Idera backup space, etc all via Blesta. Maybe a option to add it as a addon service to webhosting products so they can manage their files straight from Blesta without logging into the system directly, by that I mean: How much space used, when the next backup is, etc. API: http://wiki.r1soft.com/display/CDP3/API+Documentation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
velaware Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 Ah man, I remember using R1Soft. I tried doing something similar in 2.5 when I was working on my own backup service. Depending how you want it structured is the issue. For example, I was going to do a charge-by-GB, which pay-as-you-go isn't very friendly in Blesta, at least when I last tried to establish something. If you're charging a flat rate then it'd be easy, though. Can you point me to their backup solution? Their website is making my early-monrning-wake-up brain hurt a lot, and it doesn't seem like they do that anymore. If they offer a trial or something I'd be happy to see what I can do.

Paul Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 http://www.idera.com/productssolutions/serverbackup/serverbackupserviceproviders They do have a free trial. We use R1Soft pretty extensively. They have had their issues, but they have worked most of them out and it's generally a pretty good product. The API doc page doesn't seem to show much functionality. I've thought in the past about creating a plugin widget for Blesta, that I could install on my dashboard to show me the status of all servers being backed up, and whether any backups have failed.. but I have no idea if that information is available through their API. Last I checked, their API docs were pretty terrible. Michael 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
velaware Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 I'm talking to an account rep/sales/something right now actually. I'll see what I can do and go from there. Worst case, not possible. That fine w/ you Paul? Michael 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
