Backup Protection

Backup protection can be purchased for your SSD VPS. This means we will take regular snapshots of your server. These snapshots can then be used to restore your server to a particular snapshot, or they can be converted to a custom template, which you can use to make additional servers. More information on custom templates is available here.

SSD VPS with a disk size greater than 100GB cannot have backups enabled.

Purchase Backup Protection

  1. Navigate to the relevant server page in the control panel, select Backups, then choose Configure Backup Protection.

  2. A confirmation page will appear. Review the details and confirm by selecting Submit, which will add a Backup Protection line item to your basket.

  3. Go to your basket by clicking the basket icon in the site header.

  4. Place your order, and Backup Protection will shortly be enabled for your server.
