# MediaTemple (dv) Backup to S3 Script
*January 2009*

## The Problem

[MediaTemple](http://mediatemple.net) servers run the *Plesk Control Panel*, which *has* a reputation for having *useless backups*.

## The Solution

* MySQL Dumps of all Databases and Tables
* All configured vhosts, zipped up
* Pushes it all to either S3 or FTP

Stick it in `/etc/cron.daily/`, and you'll be good to go. No more worries. No more headaches. Ever.

**Note:** Standard FTP is also supported.
