Server Backup and Restore

Losing critical server data to a hardware failure, a cyber-attack, or even a simple human error is a worst-case scenario for any business or administrator. However, when you have a reliable backup and restore strategy in place, data loss doesn’t have to become a disaster.

Regularly backing up your data is the ultimate safety net and a foundational component of responsible server management. This section provides the essential best practices and technical instructions you need to ensure your valuable data, and your investment, remains safe and easily recoverable.

Explore the guides below to learn how to:

  • Execute Command-Line Backups: Safely navigate the command line (CLI) via SSH to precisely back up specific files or directories without needing to run a massive, full-server backup.
  • Strategize Your Backups: Develop a rock-solid, comprehensive backup plan so you know exactly what to back up, how often to do it, and where your archives should safely live.
  • Manage Server Storage: Keep your server running efficiently by safely identifying and deleting old, unnecessary manual backups that are taking up valuable disk space.
