Items to Restore/Download

Each Backup Item has a specific tab for Restore or Download. The Full Account tab, by default, will include all Backup Items if available in your backup.

  • Full Account *
  • Home Directory Files
  • Databases **
  • Database Users **
  • Email Accounts
  • FTP Accounts
  • Cron Jobs
  • DNS Zones
  • SSL Certificates

* The Full Account restore will only restore the Backup Items the user has permission to manage. If permission to some backup items are not granted, they will not be included on the Full Backup Restore.

* NOTE: When selecting a Database for restore or download without selecting Database Users, ONLY the selected database(s) will be included. If you're performing a "Databases" restore or download from the Databases (DB) Tab, please ensure the proper Database Users (DB Users) assigned to that Database are also selected BEFORE proceeding with the restore or download.
