Regular backups of your Soldat 2 server protect you from data loss – whether due to a failed update, a broken configuration or a script that keeps the server from starting cleanly.
When should you create a backup?
- Before updating the server version
- Before major changes to the configuration
- Before uploading custom maps, modifiers or game modes
- Before installing or updating scripts
- Before reworking your map rotation
- 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.
