Snapshots and backups for your server

Back up your root server or LXC container and roll it back to an earlier state with one click.

In the Backups tab of your root server or LXC container you create snapshots and backups.

  • A snapshot captures the state of your disks directly on the server and takes seconds, ideal before updates. It is lost on a reinstall.
  • A backup is a full copy on separate storage and survives a reinstall. Creating one takes a few minutes depending on the amount of data.

To restore, click Restore on the entry you want. The server is set to that state and everything after it is lost. How many snapshots and backups you can create depends on your plan.
