Never Lose Your Server Data
Scheduled backups, pre-wipe backups, and manual snapshots — all uploaded to cloud storage with integrity verification. Restore with confidence.
Cloud Storage
Backups are compressed and uploaded to cloud storage automatically. No local disk space concerns — your data is safe even if the host goes down.
Integrity Verification
Every backup includes a SHA-256 checksum. Before restoring, panelra verifies the backup hasn't been corrupted. No silent data corruption.
Atomic Restore
Restore operations are atomic — if anything goes wrong during restore, panelra automatically rolls back to the previous state. Your server is never left in a broken state.
Smart backup scope
panelra backs up everything that matters — world saves, configs, plugins, and player data — while skipping the base game files (which are 7GB+ and can always be re-downloaded from Steam). This keeps backups small and fast.
Automated backup schedules
Set up CRON-based backup schedules with custom retention policies. Automatically delete backups older than a configurable number of days. Combine with wipe scheduling to automatically create a backup before every wipe.
Pre-wipe safety net
Enable automatic backups before wipes in your wipe schedule configuration. If anything goes wrong with a wipe or you need to roll back, the pre-wipe backup is always there. Force-saves the server before starting to ensure nothing is lost.
Full restore workflow
Stop the server, select a backup, and click restore. panelra downloads the backup from cloud storage, verifies the SHA-256 checksum, cleans the target directories, extracts the archive, and verifies the extraction. If any step fails, it automatically restores from a snapshot taken before the restore began.
