Using Archive Manager

Save Space with Archive Manager

Overview
The Archive Manager allows you to compress and/or extract any files from your home directory. For example, if you have a number of files that you wish to backup, you may select all the files, then create a backup file that contains all of them in a compressed format.

Backups are an important precaution against loss or corruption of your files. If something happens to your domain, you may use these files to restore it to its original state. We advise that you store an extra copy of your backup off-network, just in case. Backups may also be used for archival purposes.

Note: The compressed file will count against your disk quota.

To access the Archive Manager:
Click the Archive Manager icon in your Control Panel.

To compress a file or group of files:
  1. Select the directories or files you want to compress.
  2. Click Compress.
  3. Select the file format - Unix (tar) or Windows (zip).
  4. Choose a name for the compressed file.
  5. Click Submit.

To extract the files:

  1. Choose script to extract by clicking the box next to it.
  2. Click Extract.
  3. You will be asked for an Output Directory. If you wish to use the current directory, enter a slash (/). Otherwise, enter the name of the directory to which you would like the file to be extracted.
  4. Click Submit. Your files will be extracted.
