An article on restoring data from a backup has already appeared on our blog, but after the release of the new version of JetBackup – which we now use on our servers – we created a guide on how to restore data in the new version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to the JetBackup software, you can restore files, databases or e-mails on your own. It’s a very convenient and fast method. In this tutorial you will learn how to restore a single file as well as the entire directory. Before we start, however, the first thing you need to do is log in to your cPanel account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Setting the email address for notifications<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Restoring files and folders<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Restoring a database<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Restoring e-mails<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Restoration queue<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    1. Setting the email address for notifications<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    The first thing we recommend is setting your e-mail address, so you will receive notifications about the progress of the backup being restored.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    After clicking on “My Account” next to the username, you will see the following view:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Most likely there will be an empty field – enter your e-mail address to which you want to receive notifications. After saving the changes, the following message should appear: “Success”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    2. Restoring files and directories<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Select “JetBackup 5” on the cPanel home screen. The available backups that can be restored will appear on the screen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    To start the file restoration process, click on the arrows on the left side of the screen (1). The operation is simple and intuitive. To restore files, click “Home Dir” (2). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Then you can select the date from which the backup will be restored (3) and what files \/ directories are to be restored (4).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    In our example, we’re going to restore the entire “Presta17” directory by simply selecting it as shown below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    After selecting the directory click on the “Select Files” button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


    With the files and date of the backup already specified, you can select the backup on the list and click “Restore”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    You will then be prompted whether to start the restore or abort. Click the “Restore Selected Items” button to add the restores to the queue. <\/p>\n\n\n\n


    Then you can go back to the Queue by clicking by the clock icon and check if the files have already been restored.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3. Restoring a database<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    As with files, you can also restore or download the database. You can do this by going to “DB” instead of “Home DIR” as before. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Find the database that you want to restore and select the date from which it will be restored. Select it on the left and proceed as when restoring files.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    In addition to restoring the database, you must also restore the user selected in “DB Users”. Restore it in the same way as before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    4. Restoring e-mails<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    When you want to restore your e-mail account, enter JetBackup 5 as in the previous steps. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Click on “Emails” and all of the e-mail accounts will be displayed. You can change the date from which the mailbox is restored.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    After finding the e-mail account and selecting the date, you can restore this account, just like in the previous steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Please note that e-mails received after the backup date will be lost after the restoration.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    5.Restoration queue<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    All items that you requested to restore (files, directories, databases, etc.) are queued and restored one by one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The queue function will allow you to view the current operations that are being performed and those that have already been completed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Operations already performed have a green inscription “Completed”, while operations in progress have a progress bar and in this case you should wait.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Depending on the size of the backup that is being restored, such restoration may take from a few seconds to several dozen minutes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
