Restore a hosting account (fully and automatically)

Update 08/24/2026

This guide explains how to automatically restore an entire web hosting from backups made by Infomaniak.

 

Introduction

  • Infomaniak performs a daily backup, and the last 7 are available to you.quotidienne, et les 7 dernières sont à votre disposition in the Manager (or more, if you are using a Web Application).
  • During the restoration, the websites will automatically be put into maintenance mode until the process is complete.
  • Since automatic file backups and database backups are not performed simultaneously, it is recommended to verify that websites are functioning correctly after the restoration.
  • Besides these options, there are no other backups available; therefore, there is no need to contact Infomaniak for this purpose, but consider other backup methods for the future.
