Backup administration

Support > My Panel > Hosting

The Hosting menu item comprises the following sub-pages: Overview, Settings, Databases, FTP, SSH, Cronjobs, Backup, ModSecurity, SSL certificates, Software, Statistics, and Monitoring.

Under Backup, you can manage your backups and create new ones.

Backup overview

All automatically and manually created backups are displayed here. You can also easily restore backups here.

Automatic backups

The automatically created backups are available to you up to several weeks back. 

Here you can see from which days the backup data is available. They can be restored accordingly.

Restore automatic backups

Click on the desired date in the calendar view.

Select the part of the hosting you want to restore and click on it.

If you agree, click on Restore.

After confirmation, the restoration is started. Depending on the memory allocation of the selected data, this may take longer.

As soon as the restoration has been completed, a success message appears.
