‘One-Click’ Web Server Backups


By Toni on August 13th, 2008 in Beginners, Dreamhost, Tips & Tutorials

In a previous post I explained DreamHost’s “Snapshot Back-ups” — which are pretty spiffy. But did you know that you can backup your entire DreamHost account with one click?

Just log into your web panel under Home > Backup Your Account. Push the shiny button to request a complete account backup of your entire DreamHost account. If you host multiple sites, this is a brilliant time-saver.

Backup can take up to several days to process, but you will recieve an email when the backup is complete and ready to download.

Notes: You can only request full account backups once every 30 days, and databases over 4MB won’t be included in the backups.
