Prerequisites
Before restoring from snapshot, make sure you have:
- Hostxpeed account access
- A previously created snapshot
- Backup of any data changed after the snapshot (optional)
⚠️ Restoring from snapshot will revert ALL data to the snapshot state. Changes made after the snapshot will be lost.
Step 1: Locate Available Snapshots
Log in to Hostxpeed Client Area → My Services → Your VPS → "Snapshots" tab.
Step 2: Select Snapshot to Restore
Choose a snapshot by date/time/description.
Step 3: Initiate Restoration
Click "Restore" next to the snapshot. Confirm the action.
Step 4: Wait for Restoration
Restoration typically takes 5-15 minutes. Your VPS may be offline during this time.
Step 5: Verify After Restore
Once completed, SSH into your VPS:
ssh hxroot@YOUR_SERVER_IP -p 22Check that data matches the snapshot state.
Alternative: Snapshot Cloning (Create New VPS from Snapshot)
Instead of overwriting current VPS, you can deploy a new VPS from the snapshot for testing.
✅ Snapshot restored. Your VPS is now back to the state at snapshot time.
