If you need to quickly re-establish contents of /var/www/vhosts/ folder for all clients without restoring a full backup. Then you need to find the contents of the mentioned folders located in the dumps folder by using the following technique.
# grep DUMP_D /etc/psa/psa.conf
DUMP_D /var/lib/psa/dumps
Generally, it is located in /var/lib/psa/dumps/clients/<client_login>/domains/<domain_name>/ and has a name like testbackup_domain.com_vhost_1207281225.tgz
To restore vhost folder content for one domain, use the following command:
# tar zxvf /var/lib/psa/dumps/clients//domains//*vhost*.tgz -C /var/www/vhosts/
If you need to restore vhost directory content for all domains of all clients you can use below script:
#!/bin/bash
pass=`cat /etc/psa/.psa.shadow`
echo “select c.login,d.name from clients c join domains d on c.id = d.cl_id;” | mysql -uadmin -p$pass psa -Ns | grep -v admin | while read cl dom; do tar zxf /var/lib/psa/dumps/clients/$cl/domains/$dom/*vhost*.tgz -C /var/www/vhosts/$dom/ >& /dev/null; done
Put the above script into a file, for example to /root/vhost_restore.sh
Place the above script into a file, for example,/root/vhost_restore.sh
Make sure you assign the proper permissions:
# chmod 755 /root/vhost_restore.sh
