JetBackup 5 introduces multi-panel support, meaning that backups created in a cPanel server, for example, can be restored on a DirectAdmin server (and vice versa). To achieve that, the JetBackup team has to create its own unique backup structure (unlike JetBackup 4 which was based on the native cPanel backup structure).
Here is a “Quick & Dirty” bash magic script that will convert a JetBackup 5 structure into cPanel backup structure ("cpmove" file). The generated cpmove file can be restored on any cPanel server (using /scripts/restorepkg) regardless of JetBackup (doesn’t have to be installed on the server).
The script can generate a cPanel backup from an already downloaded backup file (usually located at /usr/local/jetapps/usr/jetbackup5/downloads), or you can provide a username, and it will fetch the latest backup automatically (given that there are full active backups for that account).
