JetBackup officially supports:

  • CentOS 7
  • CloudLinux 7/8/9
  • AlmaLinux 8/9
  • Rocky Linux 8/9

As long as cPanel is installed

Please follow these steps to install JetBackup on CentOS/RHEL with cPanel:

Step 1: Purchase your JetBackup license from the JetBackup store.

Step 2: Log in to your server via SSH using root.

Step 3: Install JetApps Repo:

# yum install http://repo.jetlicense.com/centOS/jetapps-repo-latest.rpm -y

Step 4: Clean yum cache:

# yum clean all --enablerepo=jetapps*

Step 5: Install JetApps Manager:

# yum install jetapps --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=jetapps -y

Step 6: Run this command to install the stable version of JetBackup:

# jetapps --install jetbackup stable

Step 6: Log in to your WHM Panel. Then navigate to Home > Plugins > JetBackup.

Step 7: Accept the EULA, choose your version, and follow the installation wizard.

Notes:

JetBackup 5 is the latest major version and works well on AlmaLinux 8/9.

If you're running AlmaLinux without cPanel, JetBackup won’t work, as it requires a control panel.

Always ensure you install using root or a user with sudo privileges.
