How to delete backup files with SiteWorx

How Nexcess clients on physical (non-cloud) server accounts can delete a backup file.  

But first...

ATTENTION: By default, all SiteWorx accounts have backups disabled. To enable them, contact our support team by email or through your Client Portal.

If you delete your website, any backup files for the site stored in /home///iworx-backup will also be deleted. Therefore, if you want to retain one or more backup .tgz files, download the desired .tgz file or files to your local hard drive before you delete your website.

Method

1. Log in to your SiteWorx account.
   • If you do not know your password, click Forgot your password on the login page.
   • If you do not know the web address for your SiteWorx login page, either refer to your Welcome Email or contact our 24-hour support team for assistance.
     
     
2. On the main menu, click Backups > Management.
   
   
3. Select the check box corresponding to the desired backup file.
   
   
4. Select the With Selected check box.
   
   
5. When prompted for confirmation, click Delete.
