The Backup Wizard is a user-friendly interface for creating a backup of the entire site, a partial backup, or allowing a site restoration from the last backup saved. This tool may be useful to new users.
Using the Backup Wizard, you can back up and save your entire website or a portion of your website. You can also use the Restore link to select files to restore portions of your site. To begin, first select whether you would like to back up or restore your website.
To create a full backup:
The date the backup was created appears in the filename (which begins with backup-MM-DD-YYYY
). The file will be stored as a “tar ball,” or compressed data file, with the filename extension .tar.gz
.
Note: You cannot use a full backup to restore your site via the cPanel interface. The file must be downloaded and decompressed prior to restoration. Once the file has been decompressed, you will be able to upload and restore individual pieces of your website contained within the full backup.
To back up a portion of your site:
Note: The type of the backup file will depend on what portion of your site you are saving to your computer. For a list of backups and their corresponding file types, see the table below.
Part of Site | File Type |
---|---|
