A backup process allows making copies of data to use in the event the original data are lost or destroyed. VMmanager has a built-in backup system that allows to back up the control panel and virtual machines.

Navigate to Backups →  Backup plans →  Settings to set the general backup settings. 

  • Temporary directory — enter the backup directory on the master server to which the backup copies from the cluster nodes will be copied;
  • Timeout — Set the maximum timeout in minutes for data preparation (virtual machines).
