Backup

Backing up your server is easy and secure. Backups are encrypted with your master password.

Tip

Create frequent backups to keep your data safe!

Setup Device

Select your platform for detailed instructions on how to create a Network Folder for creating backups. This can include a drive in, or attached to, a device on your network. Otherwise, you may backup directly to a physical drive, attached to your server.

Create Backup

  1. Go to System > Create Backup
