File Restores

WebMail users may request the restoration of their mailbox from a 'snapshot' (point-in-time image). Snapshots of mailboxes are taken every 4 hours, and are retained for 7 days.

UITS Computer Operations supports the service of restoring files. Files are restored from the system backups, which are done on an incremental basis: edited or newly created files are backed up that day; all files are backed up each week, and each quarter (on some systems).

A few of the servers providing backup:

• U-System
• HPC System
• Web.arizona.edu

• Online File Restore Request
• File Restore Policy and Information
• I/O window
  Request a File Restore in person by completing the File Restore Request form at the UITS I/O window.
