See your FREAKHOSTING VPS backups, take a backup now, restore your server from a backup, and choose a backup schedule.
Backups are copies of your server’s main disk. If something goes wrong, you can put the whole server back to how it was when a backup was taken.
Difficulty
Beginner
Time
5 minutes
Some servers have two Backups tabs. The first one lists your backups and lets you back up and restore. The second one lets you set a backup Schedule. Backup options depend on your plan.
Go to Servers and click Manage next to the server.
2
Open the first Backups tab
The top of the tab shows:
Last backup: how long ago the last backup finished.
Next scheduled: when the next automatic backup runs.
Retention: how long backups are kept, for example 1 week, minimum 1 retained.
3
Expand your drive
Click Drive A to list its backups. Each shows its Date, Status (AVAILABLE means ready to use) and when it Expires. The newest is marked Currently Retained.
Confirm Are you sure you want to start a manual backup? with Backup Now.
Confirm a manual backup
3
Wait for it to finish
Watch progress in the task log. The new backup then appears in the list.
If you see This operation is not available. Please contact support if the issue persists., manual backups aren’t available for your server right now. Open a ticket if you need a backup taken.
For the most reliable backup, shut down the server first, so no files are changing while it’s copied. Take a backup before big changes such as upgrades or a rebuild.
Restoring replaces everything on the server’s disk with the backup. Anything created or changed since that backup is lost. Save recent files elsewhere first.
1
Click Restore
On the first Backups tab, click the red Restore button.
2
Choose the drive and restore point
Tick the drive (Drive A), then pick a Restore Point: Latest backup or a specific date.
The Restore Server window
3
Restore
Click Restore. The server is put back to the chosen backup. Follow progress in the task log.
