Backup Threshold Limits

Backup Threshold Limits is the root backup safety page for preventing backup jobs from overwhelming the server when load or disk usage is already too high.

Where to find it: Sign in as root, open Server > Backup, then choose Backup Threshold Limits.

Available to: Root only.

What this page does

Use this page to define when backup work should pause or refuse to start because the server load or backup partition usage has crossed the provider-approved threshold.

Before you start

A restore may replace current data. Confirm the restore point, target, scope, free space, customer approval, and what will happen to newer files or records before starting.

Why use it — and when not to

Use Backup Threshold Limits to create, find, inspect, or recover the documented backup scope. Do not start a restore until the point, target, replacement behavior, and customer approval are clear.

How to use it

  1. Open Backup Threshold Limits in the correct role and confirm the selected target.
  2. Review the current values before editing them.
  3. Change only the fields required for the task and read any confirmation carefully.
  4. Wait for a final result, then test the affected service or resource.

Result and next check

A successful backup creates a usable restore point; a successful restore replaces or recreates only the selected scope. Do not call a job complete until its final status and the recovered service have both been checked.
