Mounting OVH Backup storage with cPanel Server

How to mount the Backup storage (500 GB) Provided by OVH inside an cPanel/WHM Server?
I can't able to find any tutorials about this over internet in any forums or blogs so i made this post :)

First login to your Root using SSH (Putty) :
I used cifs to mount the 500 Storage in my Server.So i will show you how to do this using cifs.

First install the package of CIFS before mounting

yum install cifs-utils 

Run the above command to install the cifs packages now goto the next step :

mount -t cifs -o sec=ntlm,uid=root,gid=100,dir_mode=0700,username=root,password= //FTPBACKUPHOST/SERVICENAME /mnt/DIRNAME

Password : Mention the password you received from OVH After creating backup storage (Note don't mention your Server Root password)

Ftpbackuphost : Mention the ftp server link which you got in Email with Backup storage password

Service name : Mention the server name provided by OVH (Ex : ns0000000.ip-123-123-123.net)

/mnt/DIRNAME : You can mention any directory there..I recommend /backup which will be easy to look for backups (note : create the directory using "cd backup"

Now press the enter if it shows any error you made something wrong.

How to check if the Storage was mounted :

1. Login to your SSH > cd /backup > You will see an file .banner > cat .banner it will show the details

2. Login to your WHM Root >  Show current Disk space > It will show the Mount point with the Details

Now you can enable the backup from WHM > Backup/Legacy backup configuration and if you need to do backups only for Selected users use the option "WHM > Backup User selection"

How to test if the backup is running ?

You can run the following command to check on the server

/scripts/backup --force  (This command is for backup)

/scripts/cpbackup --force (this command is for Legacy backup)
