Creating or Restoring a Backup

Don’t get caught off guard — make regular backups of your server.
Even though OXY.Games provides secure infrastructure backups, we strongly recommend making your own server backups, especially before major changes (like installing mods or editing important settings).

All OXY.Games backups are stored on ultra-fast Cloudflare R2 S3 storage — secure, reliable, and fast.

Step 1: Log in to the control panel​

Log in to your game panel at panel.oxy.games.
Not sure how? Check our login guide:

Step 2: Go to the Backups menu​

Click Backups in the left-hand menu.

Want automatic backups?​

You can create manual backups as shown above,
but you can also set up automated backup tasks via a scheduled automation job.

💡 Tip: Always make a backup before changing mods or settings — that way, you can easily roll back if something goes wrong.
