Recover your server to a previous state using a backup or snapshot.
Restoring a snapshot involves recovering the exact state of a system at the time the snapshot was created. Snapshots capture the complete configuration, including the operating system, applications, and data, making it easy to revert to a specific point in time. This process is essential for system recovery, testing, or duplicating environments, ensuring consistency and minimizing downtime.
Follow this guide to restore snapshots using the Vultr Console, API, CLI, or Terraform.
When restoring a server backup that uses a static IP, you must reset the network to DHCP to obtain a functional IP address. If network configuration needs to be reset after restoring a snapshot, refer to Return a Vultr Server to the Default DHCP Configuration.
Restoring a snapshot on existing Vultr Cloud Compute servers or provisioning new servers using snapshots may take an additional 10-15 minutes compared to standard operations.
Navigate to Products and click Compute.
Click your target Vultr Cloud Compute instance to open its management page.
Navigate to the Snapshots tab.
Choose any snapshot you want to restore.
Click "Restore Snapshot" to start the restoration procedure on that target Vultr Cloud Compute instance.
Optional: To provision a new Vultr Cloud Compute instance with snapshot, select Snapshot in the Choose Image section. How to Provision Vultr Cloud Compute Instance.
