Backups (v1.1 system)
NXVAULT ships with an updated backup subsystem in v1.1 (stable). Backups are produced automatically and in-game restore/rollback tools are now available for operators.
How backups work
- Hourly backups are created/updated every hour.
- At the end of each day, hourly files are consolidated/saved as that day's daily snapshot.
- The system retains the last 30 backups (combined view of hourly/daily retention).
- Each backup file contains only the data for vaults that were updated during that interval (i.e., they are per-vault delta files, not full global dumps).
- Storage format change: Backups are stored as plain/open folders (no zip archives) inside the plugin's root
/backupdirectory.
Restore & rollback (in-game)
/vault restoreall <time>— Restore all vaults to the selected snapshot./vault rollback <player> <time>— Rollback a single player's vault to the selected snapshot./vaultadmin <player>— Open and inspect another player's vault.
Important Data Notice Automatic single-click full restores are now available via the in-game commands above, but because backup files are incremental, some manual assembly or verification may still be required for complex recovery cases. Operators are still recommended to keep periodic full server backups in addition to NXVAULT backups.
Backup files are written under the plugin folder in a /backup directory. To make off-server archival easier, periodically copy the backup folder to external storage and test restores on a staging server.
