Backups

Backups

Backups (vPanel → Backups) let each account protect its own data — both the home directory files and the databases.

Creating a backup

Create a backup and Vanta Panel archives your account's home directory and its databases into a single downloadable file.

Restoring and uploading

You can download a backup to keep it safe off-server, restore from a backup to roll your account back, and upload a previously-downloaded backup to restore it.

Server-wide backups (admin)

At the server level, vWHM includes a Backup Manager so the administrator can back up any or all accounts, list existing backups, and download them.

Good practice

Take regular backups and download important ones off the server, so you have a copy even if something happens to the machine.
