by | Nov 30, 2019

Can you please help with DirectAdmin backup?

That was a recent request from one of our Server Management Services customers.

Data loss is something that can happen at any time.

In DirectAdmin, Backups option enables clients to save the data without any problem.

Today, we’ll see how our Support Engineers set up a backup in DirectAdmin and fix errors.

 

Backup Management in DirectAdmin

DirectAdmin is a web-based hosting control panel designed to simplify website administration works. It has three access levels as Admin, Reseller, User. Also, the DirectAdmin control panel is accessed by a web browser at http://{domain}:2222/.

One of the main advantages of this hosting control panel is easy backup management. This is a feature that every smart Webhosting provider looks for.

It’s quite normal for the website files or the databases to go corrupt. And it can make websites or applications unavailable. Having a proper backup alleviates the risk and the customers need not worry whenever a data loss happens. They can conveniently restore the information on the website without any downtime.
