Allow on demand backup without accounts permissions

Product: JetBackup 5 for DirectAdmin


To allow backups on demand in JB5 You have to give user "accounts" permission, which is awkward for non-reseller accounts in DirectAdmin:

  • Only that single user account itself is ever displayed in "accounts" page,
  • clicking on user account in "accounts" page reveals "view backups" and "view downloads" which are redundant with "restore & download" and "downloads" pages, but displayed in popups,
  • under "manage account" page user can change its own backups on demand limit (?!),
  • there is "view orphan accounts" and "reassign" option available in "accounts" page, which reveals that there were users with that name before, but the good thing is that reassigning does not work anyway, so user cannot gain access to data of previous user. These options should not be visible for non-resellers.

Hello Everyone,

Thank you for your continued patience!

We are excited to announce the release of JetBackup v5.2.0 on the EDGE Tier! This release includes our revamped End-User Panel. Part of these changes includes permission updates for the End-User as well. For Backup on Demand, if the Backup on Demand is DISABLED it will be hidden for all End-Users.

When ENABLED the Backup on Demand button will be visible for all End-Users, however, you may use the Backup on Demand Conditions in order to limit usage based on the Users Disk Usage and Inode Usage. If you have any questions regarding this feature, please reach out to our support team at support@jetapps.com or leave your feedback on our JetBackup Forums!

Thank you,

JetApps Team
