Problem taking archive of drupal site

[korakode]

Hi,

I have installed drupal 8 developer portal and I need to host the existing site on Pantheon. Currrently I have drush 9. As per the installation steps(in pantheon), I need to create a archive of my site using the following command:

drush ard --destination=sites/default/files/MXVhxTrV3944oH3.tgz

But ard (archive dump) is supported only in drush 8. So how we take dump in drush 9.Is there any alternative for drush 9?

Can you please help me out.

Please take a database backup using

drush sql-dump > /tmp/db-backup.sql

You can upload your files directory using SFTP or uploading a zip on the Pantheon site.
