Restoring Server Data

Periodic execution: Data is backed up based on the backup period configured in the backup policy.
Ransomware protection: Data is backed up immediately when a server is attacked by ransomware.

If your server is attacked by ransomware, you can use the backup to restore the server data to minimize the loss. Before using the backup data to restore the service data of a server, check whether the backup is available. If the backup is available, restore the key service system first.

Prerequisites

The backup function has been enabled. For details, see Enabling Backup.
