Backup & restore

Backups are not optional. Set them up before you have a world you care about.

Manual backups

In Backups, click Create Backup. The panel snapshots your server's data directory and stores it. Manual backups are kept until you delete them or hit your retention limit.

Scheduled backups

In Backups, enable automatic backups, pick the daily run hour, and choose how many automatic backups to keep. Old scheduled backups are pruned automatically.

Restoring

Click any backup, then Restore. The server stops, the data directory is replaced with the snapshot, and the server restarts. Restore is destructive — anything not in the backup is gone.

What backups are not

• They are not offsite by default. In production, backups may remain within the active service environment. Use the backup Download action when you need your own offsite copy.
• They are not point-in-time. They are snapshots taken at the moment you click or the schedule fires.

Honest disclosure

Kyrbit keeps operational backups for platform recovery, but customer server data is covered by the current backup policy rather than a guaranteed restore SLA unless a specific commitment is listed in your plan. Treat your local downloads as your own disaster-recovery copy.
