With backups, you can create a secure 'snapshot' of the current site configuration (all modules) as a 'Last Known Good Configuration' to protect against any mistakes or data corruption. This snapshot can later be used in case you need to restore a configuration. We recommend setting the backup snapshot after you have completed the initial setup.
Create a configuration backup
- In the Admin window, go to Server Tools and select Backup Configuration.
- Click Save Backup.
The last configuration save date shows the last time a change was made to the configuration, and NOT the last time the user saved the backup. As an example, if you made a change to the configuration on 2023-04-02 at 14:04 and waited 2 minutes before clicking Save Backup at 14:06, you would see that the Last configuration save date is 2023-04-02 at 14:04 (the time when you made the change and saved it).
Restore a configuration
You can easily revert to a previous version of your site configuration by using the restore feature.
- In the Admin window, go to Server Tools and select Backup Configuration.
- Click Restore Last Saved Configuration.
A warning message displays.
- Click Yes, Restore or Cancel.
- A confirmation message displays.
- Click OK.
