Backup/Restore

To make life easy we have created a backup and restore script, this will take the keys, all configuration and database and create a tar file which can be saved to else where.

To setup the backup script on your RustDesk Server do the following:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rustdesk/rustdesk-server-pro/main/backup.sh
chmod +x backup.sh

You now have options.

Run the backup script ./backup.sh to create a one time backup.

Or run the backup script ./backup.sh --schedule. This will schedule the backup script to run nightly and autorotate.

To Restore do the following:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rustdesk/rustdesk-server-pro/main/restore.sh
chmod +x restore.sh

Copy the backup file into the same folder as the restore.sh file and then run ./restore.sh.

This will restore your server to how it was prior, you will need to revoke your license to move it to the restored server.
