Restoring Backups – Restoring Individual Objects

You do not have to restore all configuration and content stored in a
backup file. You can pick which objects to restore from the backup (for
example, a single domain and all associated objects, a single mail
account, or even just a single individual file).

To restore individual objects from a backup:

1. Go to Websites & Domains > Backup Manager. Here you can see
   all backups stored both in the server storage and
   remote storages.

2. Click the backup you want to restore.

3. Under “What do you want to restore?” select the “Selected objects”
   radio button.

4. Under “Type of object to restore” select the type of objects you want
   to restore:

   • Mail account. Restore individual mail accounts.

   • Database. Restore individual databases.

   • Sites. Restore individual websites with all associated objects and
     content (mail accounts, databases, and so on).

   • DNS Zone. Restore DNS zone contents for individual domains.

   • Files of domains. Restore individual files.

     If you want to restore objects of different types (for example, a
     single mail account and two databases), you would need to run the
     restoration twice, once for the databases, and once for the mail
     account.

5. Select which objects to restore. All available objects of the
   selected type are displayed in the “Available” column on the left.
   Click the objects you want to restore. Those objects will move to the
   “Selected” column.

   

   If you selected “Files of domains” during the previous step, click
   Add files, select the file or files you want to restore, and then
   click OK.

   

   You can select any number of files to restore.

6. Under “Restore”, select whether to restore only the configuration of
   the selected objects, or both the configuration and content.
