Backups provide comprehensive data protection by creating full copies of your server’s data and configurations. Unlike snapshots, backups are designed for long-term data retention and disaster recovery.
Prerequisites
  • A VPS with the Backup option enabled
  • An OnetSolutions account

​
Automatic Backups

Your VPS is automatically backed up once per day. Backups are stored securely and can be restored at any time through the VPS management interface.

Restoring a Backup
