Configuring Automated Backup Schedules in WHM

Summary: Backups are your safety net. WHM allows you to schedule daily, weekly, or monthly backups to local or remote storage.

Advice for Thamara Users: We highly recommend using a "Remote Destination" (like Google Drive or S3) for your backups. Storing backups on the same server is risky if the disk fails.

Steps:

  1. Search for Backup and click Backup Configuration.

  2. Toggle Enable Backups to "On".

  3. Choose the Backup Type (Compressed is recommended to save space).

  4. Set the Scheduling and Retention (how many copies to keep).

  5. Under Files, select which accounts and system files to include.

  6. Under Additional Destinations, configure your remote storage if available.

  7. Click Save Configuration.
