What can the WBRM^® utility do?

The WBRM^® utility is a GUI Tool for system administrators that run WebsitePanel on their servers. It's core activity is to run scheduled backups of WebsitePanel Entire accounts or single resources such as WebSpaces, Sites, Databases, Emails, Statistics, DNS zone files, FTP accounts and save the backups to anywhere you want (same HD, different HD, network drive, remote FTP). Of course It also does the restore.
However, THE BIG DEAL is, that the restore can be done on any server with WebsitePanel - with no need for previous account setup.

How is the WBRM^® utility Different from the built-in backup in WebsitePanel?

The WBRM^® utility is built on top of the WebsitePanel backup engine, but unlike the built-in engine, the WBRM^® utility extends its capabilities of backup and restore to an external storage resource, and allow to restore to completely new servers.
Furthermore, now you can have a single file for the entire account and all it's resources that can automatically be saved on any external storage resource.

What's unique about the WBRM^® utility from the existing WebsitePanel backup?

WebsitePanel backup can only backup resources in the user's account. If however, you accidently terminated/deleted the account, you no longer have the ability to restore the backup automatically. One would expect that re-creating the account will resolve this issue. However, WebsitePanel is designed to recognize that the internal backup is being attempted to be restored to a "different Account" even if it has the same name (some meta definition), and will prevent you from restoring the backup.
This prevents the system admin from moving WebsitePanel users from one server to another without doing intensive manual work.
The WBRM^® utility takes care of this, and allows the system admin to do a SINGLE MOUSE CLICK to backup and restore full accounts with no manual activity at all.

How does it backup WebsitePanel resources?

The WBRM^® utility does a smart utilization of the existing WebsitePanel backup API found in the enterprise server of WebsitePanel. However, the calls are managed externally, thus giving the WBRM^® utility the ability to monitor progress, decide to what to backup, where to store the backup, and when to backup resulting is a WBRM^® backup file.
