1. Log in to your EZSCALE control panel.
2. Navigate to the 'Backups' section of your VPS dashboard.
3. For a manual backup, click ‘Create Backup Now.’ For scheduled backups, select 'Schedule Backup' and choose your preferred frequency and time.

Restoring from a Backup To restore your VPS from a backup:
