Kaspersky is uploading huge chunks of data to a local server! Please help me explain this!!
This might be because of some backup part which kaspersky takes for the files in quarantine, So that whenever required you can get back your files.

I need your help on a subject.
I need to perform a backup of our Rundeck system and send it to a server in the GCP, but there are more than 90GB of information and I don't know how to make this backup.
All my attempts to compress using gzip, bzip2, xz and rsync have failed, the error is basically because the file is too big.
What would be the best way to perform the backup?
Could you give me suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
You need to follow this guide. Also, as a tip: keep out the execution logs from your project export, to gain space in your files.
I am new to Virtual Machines and CLI so please bear with me.
I have a CentOS 6.5 running on Compute Engine.
I ran yum update (without creating a snapshot of the previous disk - Yes I am an idiot) and not I cannot connect to the machine using the ip address.
I tried the following steps.
Tried to connect through Filezilla - didn't work.
Tried through Putty - didn't work
Tried through the browser option given by the CE console - didn't work.
I even tried creating a snapshot and starting up another VM with the snapshot - didn't work.
If anyone knows how I can get the files and folders out from the previous disk, I can start up a new VM and transfer everything again.
I do not have the latest database and this is important.
Please help!
Thanks
Warren
The way to recover is to delete your VM without deleting the disk, then create another VM with its own boot disk, attach and mount the original disk, and recover any data that you need from it.
First things first: on the VM instances page, click on the instance name that is currently running with that disk, and uncheck the box "Delete boot disk when instance is deleted". Then delete the instance.
Now, create a new instance with its own boot disk. To differentiate this new disk from the original boot disk:
using a different OS (or version of the OS) for the new disk, e.g., if using Ubuntu, try a different version or use Debian; if using RHEL, try CentOS, or vice versa
see which one is mounted at / — this should be the new disk
Mount the original disk as read-only and recover any information you need. Once you have a backup of your data, you can remount it with read-write access and try to fix it (but back up the data first!).
I finally solved this problem thanks to Misha for sending me in the right direction.
The steps are below for anyone who has the same issue.
Problem:
While updating the Centos server using yum update, I was unable to connect back to the server.
I tried all possible combinations but no luck. This seems to be a known issue as there was some material on the Compute Engine site regarding this.
Solution:
I followed the steps as Misha suggested. I started up another VM with its own boot disk and then attached the original disk with read write access.
Note: I was unable to mount the disk as just read only.
The commands were
mkdir /mnt/sdb1
mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/sdb1
Once I mounted the VM, I copied the files from the html folder in the sdb1 disk to the html folder in the sda1(the new boot disk).
The database was a bit more challenging.
I tried quite a few times but copying the files from /dev/sdb1/var/lib/mysql into the new disk mysql folder was not working.
I found some tutorials but nothing helped.
Finally I downloaded the files from within the /dev/sdb1/var/lib/mysql and put them in my local windows mysql installation within the data folder.
Remember you have to download everything which includes the ib_logfile0 , ib_logfile1 and ibdata1 including the folder which has the *.frm files.
Then I opened localhost/phpmyadmin and voila... the files were there.
The rest was pretty simple... Exporting and uploading the SQL scripts back to the server.
This took me about 12 hours to figure out.
Thanks again Misha.
Thanks in advance for any help, you guys are awesome!
A previous web developer made a backup of the site in question to the server months ago, and the permissions for this backup are 600. I can't change the permissions or download the file, although I can still move it between folders.
I've read having low disk space is sometimes the problem, but in this case there are 2 GB left, so that should be fine.
There is an other way to download backup from server to local machine, if you are able to move backup file in folders then move it to your website's home directory like '/home/user/public_html/backup.zip' and then browse it in browser and download the backup file.
http://yourdomain.com/backup.zip
It will provide you download option.
I have some large files (one of them is 10 GB), I want to store this file in Windows Azure, Storage (BLOB) directly, instead of downloading the same locally, and then uploading it.
Is there a way we could just mention the URL and the same gets uploaded in the Azure Storage ?
Any help would be really appreciated, if it is combination of services that also works fine :)
Yes, you can do this. Gaurav has a great post about copying from S3, but the same thing will work for any publicly-accessible URL: http://gauravmantri.com/2012/06/14/how-to-copy-an-object-from-amazon-s3-to-windows-azure-blob-storage-using-copy-blob/
I have been working on a SQL Server database designing since long now and I have observed that when a .bak file is mailed or kept and downloaded from ftp site, it gets corrupted.
When I try to restore, it gives me 3013 error code with messsage:
"Backup or restore operation terminating abnormally.
I tried RESTORE VERIFYONLY FROM DISK='C:\abc.bak' as well but it says
VERIFY DATABASE is terminating abnormally.
Any idea why this is happening and also, is there a better way to move the database file from one server to another (I do not have the access to source server)
Thanks in advance.
For FTP make sure that you use binary mode.
Did you try to send plain attachment to yourself and compare the results with the files from sent and received email?
As mentioned here
You may need to repair your mdf file first using some tools. There are lot of tool available in the market. There is tool called Restore MS SQL Database which is very useful to repair the mdf files.
The issue might me because of corrupted transaction logs, you may use tool Restore MS SQL Database to repair your corrupted mdf file.
