The first step to backup all accounts in cPanel / WHM running on Centos is to enable Backups in WHM. a.) Login to WHM and select Backup >>> Backup Configuration.

b.) Under Back Status enable Backups

The above steps will enable the backup process but the backup will happen in WHM on a schedule chosen by you in the configuration.

If you want the backups to run immediately then login to the ssh terminal and use the following command:

/usr/local/cpanel/bin/backup

The above code will trigger the backup process immediately.
