JetBackup
JetBackup is an enterprise-grade backup solution that AdminBolt can install and monitor. It provides incremental backups, multiple backup destinations, scheduled backups, and file-level restoration, all managed from JetBackup's own web interface.

Overview
URL: /admin/jet-backup - under Applications, after the module is installed.
In AdminBolt, JetBackup is an application module: the panel installs it, reports its service health and license, and gives you a one-click launch into the JetBackup web interface where the actual backup and restore work is done.
Installation
- Open Admin → Applications → Modules (
/admin/module-manager). - Select JetBackup and click Install.
- Confirm Install JetBackup in the dialog.
Installation takes a couple of minutes while the JetBackup software is set up on the server. When it finishes, JetBackup appears under Applications and the status view becomes available.
Status view
Once installed, /admin/jet-backup shows the service status and quick actions:
- Status - for example,
runningwith aJetBackup OKindicator, and the license state (unlicenseduntil a license is applied). - Web Interface - when accessible, Access JetBackup opens the JetBackup web UI to manage backups.
- Quick Actions - Restart Service and Manage License.
- Refresh Status - re-reads the live service state.

Known limitations
The AdminBolt integration covers install, health monitoring, license management, and launch. The backup and restore experience itself lives in JetBackup's own web interface, not in AdminBolt:
- Backup scheduling, restore (files, databases, mail), remote storage, and disaster-recovery configuration are performed in the JetBackup UI.
- JetBackup restores are not performed inside the AdminBolt client panel; end users run them in the JetBackup client interface, reached through the JetBackup launcher.
- A JetBackup license is required for production use; a fresh install reports
unlicensed.
Independently of JetBackup, AdminBolt has built-in per-account backups handled by the bolt-agent: clients can create and restore Filesystem Backups and Database Backups on demand from the client panel. JetBackup is the recommended path for full-featured, scheduled, multi-destination backups.
