Backing up and restoring partition data

  1. From the Service Management menu, click Backup/Restore. The Backup/Restore page is displayed, which includes the Partition Configuration Backup/Restore tab and the Management Partition Backup/Restore tab.
  2. To download an existing backup of the partition configuration, generate a new backup, upload a saved backup, or restore the existing backup, click the Partition Configuration Backup/Restore tab.
  3. To view instructions for backing up and restoring the data on your management partition using the backupios command, click the Management Partition Backup/Restore tab.
