Global Backup Settings
Each Backup role on your server automatically inherits the global Service settings. Once enabled you will be able to offer website backups as a service to customers.
To configure global Backup settings:
- Open Settings in the left sidebar
- Select Service settings in the menu
- Navigate to the Backups section.
Configurable settings include:
-
Minimum backup age The minimum time since the last backup was taken required for a website to be backed up again. This setting prevents creating an excessive number of backups.
-
Max backup age (Hours) The maximum time between backups of a website. This is a target and may be exceeded if your platform has high load.
-
Maximum backup retention The length of time a backup is stored before it is deleted from the backup service.
-
Backup emails Email accounts will be backed up alongside all website backups.
-
Maximum concurrent backups The number of concurrent backups taken per server. If this setting is too low, it may not achieve the ‘Maximum backup age’.
-
Allowed backup hours The hours at which automatic backups will run. This adheres to the local timezone of your Enhance master server.
