hi i have a website of joomla but in c panel i have installed vbulletin forum and integrated through jfusion...
My server provider sent notice to make backup within 4 days after that he will format all data from server.
Firstly, I used phpMyAdmin and then clicked on 1 of my database then export than saved it as a zip file ..... same i did to the 2nd database.... it saved like this name.sql.zip ...
then i went to my joomla backend and by the help of akeeba backup took the database of my joomla site in zip format....
After that i went to Cpanel and converted the vbulletin folder into zipped file in public_html , and downloaded it.... is it enough or i need to do something else for backing up my site and forum and every thing ...... please tell me is it ok... its very urgent... Please :( thanks in advance

Sounds adequate. But I suggest you test this procedure once atleast (better safe than sorry). Backup your site from the live server and set it up on localhost.
