Protect important server data
Create backups before updates, migrations, or risky changes.
Create a backup
Open Backups and create a new backup. Use a clear name that explains what state it represents.
When to create one
- Before major updates.
- Before replacing many files.
- Before configuration migrations.
- Before a risky deployment.
- Before restoring another backup.
Restore
Confirm the backup and the expected target state before restoring. A restore can replace current data.
Backup limits
Available backup slots and behavior depend on the server configuration.
Warning
Do not treat a backup as verified until you know it completed successfully.
