| How to use
H-Sphere Backups |
| |
| As with all of
our products, we've tried to make H-Sphere Backups as simple and easy to use
as possible. To get started simply click on Account Backup under the Main
section of your CP (control panel). |
| |
 |
| |
You are now at
the Backups page. This page contains all of the settings you will use to
create/restore your backups with.
The first section of the backups page is the Backup/Restore Queue. If there
are any pending backups and/or restores, they will be shown here. |
| |
 |
| |
| The second
section is where a backup can be schedule for domain data. There are three
different ways to deliver the backup. You can choose Web Browser which will
make the file available for download (in the queue menu) once the backup has
completed. If FTP is selected, the backup will be placed in the user's home
directory on their web box. If Remote FTP is selected a user can specify an
FTP server to deliver the backup to. |
| |
 |

| Select Web
Browser as the delivery method. Click Fetch Backup. Once the backup is
complete a download link will be available for the backup in the
Backup/Restore Queue. |

| If Remote FTP
is selected, the user will be required to enter in all of the information
for the FTP server. This includes the hostname, username and password for
the account, the FTP path and whether or not to use PASV mode. |
| |
 |
| |
| Once the

Once the backup is completed the compressed backup file will be available at
the Remote FTP location. |
| |

| Backing up a
MySQL database |
| |
| To backup a
MySQL database, the first thing to do is to select the delivery method.
These methods work exactly like they do when backing up a domain. Next you
need to select the database to be backed up. Once the database has been
selected click fetch backup to start the backup. |

MySQL backup |

methods function just like they do during a domain restore. Once the
delivery method has been selected and all information pertaining to that
delivery method has been entered, click Restore Database. Once the restore
is complete a success message will be displayed. |
