Restore a hosting (completely and automatically)

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

 

Preamble

  • Infomaniak performs a daily backup, and the last 7 are available to you in the Manager (or more if you use a Web Application).
  • During the restoration, the sites will be automatically put in maintenance until the end of the process.
  • Since automatic file backups and database backups are not performed simultaneously, it is recommended to check the proper functioning of the sites after restoration.
  • Outside of these options, there is no other backup that you could obtain; it is therefore not necessary to contact Infomaniak for this purpose, but consider other backup methods for the future.
