This is essential when you need to recover files before rebuilding or decommissioning your server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u26a0\ufe0f Important: Rescue Mode is for data recovery only. Do not attempt live deployments here.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What You&#8217;ll Need<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Your Rescue Mode login credentials (provided by support)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An SSH client (Terminal on Mac\/Linux, PowerShell or PuTTY on Windows)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Access to another server or a local computer to store backups<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Enough free storage space (at least as much as your data size)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 1: Connect to Rescue Mode<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Open your terminal or SSH client and connect to your server:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ssh root@YOUR_SERVER_IP<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Example:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ssh root@192.0.2.10<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Enter your Rescue Mode password when prompted.

Create a compressed backup:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>tar -I pigz -cpf website-backup.tar.gz \/mnt\/home<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What does this command do?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>tar = archiving tool<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>-I pigz = compress with pigz (faster than gzip)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>-cpf = create, preserve permissions, and save to file<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>website-backup.tar.gz = output filename<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check the backup size when finished:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ls -lh website-backup.tar.gz<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 6: Back Up Your Email Data<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Email files are usually in the mail directory:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>tar -I pigz -cpf email-backup.tar.gz \/mnt\/home\/*\/mail<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 7: Back Up Your Databases<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have MySQL or MariaDB databases, back up the database files(for proper recovery, back up everything in the database folder):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>tar -I pigz -cpf mysql-backup.tar.gz \/mnt\/var\/lib\/mysql<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For a database, more technical know-how is required to properly restore it in production. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 8: Transfer Backups to Another Server<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you have backups, you need to move them to safe storage. Use SCP (secure copy) to transfer them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Option A: Using SCP (Simple Copy)<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>Copy a backup file to another server:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>scp website-backup.tar.gz user@backup-server:\/backups\/<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Example: Copy to 203.0.113.20<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>scp website-backup.tar.gz root@203.0.113.20:\/root\/backups\/<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Enter the password for the destination server when prompted. The file will copy over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Tip: Copy all three backups this way (website, email, database).<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Option B: Using Rsync (Better for Large Files)<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>For large backups, rsync is faster and more reliable:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>rsync -avP website-backup.tar.gz user@backup-server:\/backups\/<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Benefits of rsync:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shows progress as it transfers<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Can resume if interrupted<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Faster for multiple files<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 9: Verify Your Backups<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Always verify backups before considering them safe. Test the backup file:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>tar -tf website-backup.tar.gz | head -20<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This shows the first 20 files in the backup. If you see your files listed, the backup is good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Also test that the file isn&#8217;t corrupted:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>gzip -t website-backup.tar.gz<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No output means the file is intact. If there&#8217;s an error, the backup may be corrupted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 10: Clean Up<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Once all backups are transferred and verified, unmount the filesystem:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>umount \/mnt\/<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Verify it&#8217;s unmounted:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>mount | grep mnt\/<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If no output appears, you&#8217;re done with the unmount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Common Issues &amp; Solutions<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Issue: \u201cDevice is busy\u201d when unmounting<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>This means a process is still using the mounted files. Change to a different directory:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>cd \/ umount \/mnt<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Issue: Can\u2019t find the right partition<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Use fdisk or blkid to get detailed partition information:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>fdisk -l blkid<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Issue: Backup is taking too long<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>Large backups can take hours. Consider backing up individual accounts instead of the entire \/home directory, or use rsync to resume if interrupted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Best Practices<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Always transfer backups to a separate server immediately<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Verify backup integrity before requesting server recreation<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep at least two copies of critical backups<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Label backups with dates so you know which is which<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do not run production services from Rescue Mode<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Test restoring from backups to ensure they work<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>You\u2019re Done!<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Once all your files are backed up, verified, and safely stored on another server, you can contact support to request server recreation or redeployment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em><strong><em>Your data is now secure and can be restored whenever needed.<\/em><\/strong><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A complete guide to safely access your server in Rescue Mode and back up your critical files, emails, and databases.
