I have made two shell scripts

Script 1: It does all Home directory backups with name

 username_home_date.tar.gz

Script 2: It does SQL backups of all sites every 3 hrs.

username_databse_date.sql.gz

Now currently if I want to restore the site, I have to copy the tar file to

/home/username

and then untar there with all the permissions as well and then manually import the database.

Is there any way (for instance a program, system or script) that I can just select which backup I want to restore and do automatically?

Maybe like a cPanel addon thing.
