Regular backups of your Echoes of Elysium server protect you from data loss – whether due to a failed update, a broken configuration or an accidentally overwritten save.
When should you create a backup?
- Before updating the server version
- Before major changes to the configuration
- Before uploading a different save
- Before moving to another server
- At regular intervals so you always have a safe state to return to
Create a backup
You can find the exact process for creating, managing and restoring a backup in the general guide: Create Backup.
Server-side backups
Echoes of Elysium also comes with its own backup feature. In the dashboard under Settings you will find the following fields for it:
| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Enable Auto Server Backup | Defines whether the server creates its own backups (true or false). |
| Backup Interval | Time between two backups in minutes. |
| Max Backups | Number of backups the server keeps. |
| Save Interval | Interval in minutes at which the server saves the running world. |
After changing a value, restart your server so the new values are applied.
