How to Access Your Database Backup Storage
A backup location is a dedicated storage space created automatically with each MS SQL database. This secure area is used to store database backups, extracted .mdf/.ldf files, and SQL scripts. The available storage capacity is determined by your specific MS SQL hosting plan.
How to Access Your Backup Location
You can manage your files using the built-in web tool or via an external FTP client.
Option 1: Using the Backup File Manager (Web)
This allows you to upload, download, and manage files directly through your browser.
- Navigate to the MS SQL section in the main menu.
- Click on the name of the database you wish to manage.
- Select the Backup file manager tab.
- From here, you can browse, upload, or download your backup files and scripts.
Option 2: Using FTP
For larger files or bulk transfers, you may prefer using an FTP client.
- Navigate to the MS SQL section and select your database.
- On the main Details dashboard for that database, look for the FTP login info section.
- Use the provided Host, Username, and Password to connect via your preferred FTP client.
