How to Create, Restore, and Delete Snapshots
How to Create, Restore, and Delete Snapshots (Backups)
Viewing Snapshots
- Go to your server's detail page.
- Click the Snapshots/Backups tab.
- View your current snapshot count, total slots (3 free, or 30 with the premium addon), and auto-schedule status.
Creating a Snapshot
- In the Snapshots panel, click Take Snapshot.
- A manual snapshot will be queued. This runs in the background.
Restoring a Snapshot
- Find the snapshot you want to restore in the list.
- Click Restore and confirm the action.
- Your server will reboot and be restored to the state captured in that snapshot.
Warning: Restoring a snapshot overwrites your current server state and reboots the server.
Deleting a Snapshot
- Click Delete next to the snapshot and confirm.
- The snapshot is permanently removed.
Premium Backups ($4.95/month)
