Steps to enable File and Directory restoration in cPanel server/WHM
In cPanel version 68, there is an option called file restoration. Moreover, if you delete the file consciously or unconsciously there is a secondary option to retrieve your deleted files in version 68 of cPanel or WHM. Only, a technical person knows the importance of directory when compiling a website. In that case, if the directory was deleted then you must have a secondary option to retrieve a directory, isn’t it? Yes, you have an option in a recent version of cPanel or WHM where it comes with both file and directory restoration option.
Before a startup, it’s just to configure the WHM backup without fail. Let us see, how to take configure WHM backup:
Step 1: In WHM, go to the Backup part and then choose the Backup Configuration. There, you can see the name global settings where you can enable or disable the backup.
Step 2: Below to global settings, 3 choices of backup type can be viewed such as compressed, uncompressed, and incremental.
Step 3: In step 3, set up the backups in monthly, weekly, or daily sections. To enable or disable the backups, tap on scheduling, and retention choice. Here, you can also set up how many times a day, week or monthly backup should take.
