Online backup

avatar

Hi all,

Yesterday I was able to make a backup in version 2025.2.11.0 but now I don't see the option to restore an online backup anywhere.
Has this option disappeared completely or am I overlooking the option to restore an online backup?
I am using this version on a Mac.
I made the backup online and not locally on my PC.

Best regards

Hi,

I strongly advise against using online backups, as they will be removed very soon. For more details, please consult the following page:

Hi Jesse,

I know but this was just a quick online backup and so unfortunately I can't restore it now.
Instead of having to add 500 servers manually, it would be a lot easier if I could do that from the backup I created yesterday?

Kind regards

Hi,

What datasource type are you using?

The online backups should still be available until the next update.
You should be able to restore in the File tab.

Hi Jesse,

Yes I have those settings too but then how can I load an online backup from the web (Devolutions)?

Kind regards

Hi,

I'm not sure I understand. Could you answer these questions?

1- What datasource type are you using?
2- Did you make the online backup from the RDM Mac application?
If not, was it made from the web (Devolutions Server or Devolutions Hub)?

In my case, to test, I set up the online backup from RDM Mac and was able to restore from it successfully.

Best regards,

Hi Jesse,
