Click Download a Full Web Site Backup to create, download, or store a full backup file. A full backup file includes your /home directory, databases, email forwarders, and filters.

Important:

• You cannot use a full backup file to restore your website through the cPanel interface. Contact your system administrator for assistance.

• You must download and compress the backup file before you attempt to restore it.

• After you decompress the backup file, you can upload and restore individual portions of your website that the full backup file contains.

• The backup process for an account near or over its quota may fail because the system cannot write necessary files, such as a database lock file.
