How do I prepare for a backup or restoration?

A backup is useful only when its scope and restoration path match the intended resource.

Before you start

You need permission for the resource and the specific backup or restoration action.

What to do

  1. Select the exact website, hosting account or game server.
  2. Read the backup scope and check that the affected files and data are included.
  3. Inspect the completed backup record and its recovery point.
  4. Before restoring, preserve newer state and confirm the exact material that the restore will replace.

What happens next

You have a defined recovery point for the intended operation.

If something goes wrong

A restore can overwrite newer data. Do not use an entire account or server restore to repair one file unless that broader recovery is actually intended and authorised.
