Remote Backup

Browse account backups stored on your provider's remote backup service.

Where to find it: Open the account, choose Backup or Remote Backup as shown in the account menu, then select Remote Backup.

Available to: The account owner, their reseller or the server administrator. Availability depends on the hosting plan and installed services.

Before you start

Restoring a backup can overwrite newer data. Check the backup date, choose what to restore and make sure there is enough free disk space before starting.

Why use it — and when not to

Use Remote Backup 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. Choose the remote backup type and available restore point.
  2. Browse the account files or databases included in that copy.
  3. Open the matching restore option when you have found the required data.

Result and next check

Wait for the job to finish and check its final status. After a restore, open the affected website, mailbox or database to confirm it works.
