Making backups

Making backups

ispmanager backs up sites, databases, mail, server settings, and your settings. By backing up, you will be able to restore valuable data if a user deletes vital content or an intruder breaks into the database

How ispmanager’s backup system works

Flexible scheduling

Servers are backed up manually or automatically on schedule. By default, backups are made once a day, but this can be reconfigured. ispmanager supports Cron, a program for UNIX systems that gives you flexibility in scheduling backups.

Backups neither interfere with server performance nor take up a lot of space

ispmanager uses the full and incremental backup method.

By default, the panel performs a full backup on Sundays and an incremental backup daily. An incremental backup contains only the data that has changed since the previous backup.

With this system, all data is saved daily, you save disk space, and the backup process doesn’t waste time.

Incremental backup

First, the data is backed up in its entirety, and then each subsequent backup run only backs up the new or updated data
