Sicherung und Wiederherstellung

A recoverable company-Vault installation uses a complete encrypted bundle of System, every company Vault, local files, local audit archives and installation identity material. Keep external unlock material and operating configuration separately protected. A copy of System alone cannot recover the companies. Native capture briefly fences writes so all files agree; native restore verifies the inventory, hashes and identity before publishing a new generation. Older single-Vault estates still require separate matching assets and secrets until migration.

Minimum practice

• take complete native installation backups on a documented schedule;
• keep secrets and encryption keys in a protected recovery store;
• maintain at least one off-host/off-site copy;
• define retention and deletion periods;
• test restoration on a separate environment;
• record recovery-point and recovery-time results;
• repeat the drill after material changes.

A backup that has never been restored is not verified recovery evidence.

Shared responsibility

On-premise automatic backup is disabled by default. Enable it deliberately and verify an off-host recovery drill. Managed Cloud duties and retention follow the Cloud Schedule.

The customer controls private-estate backups unless an Order explicitly assigns managed backup duties. railbase.app has its own control-plane backup programme; that does not replace backup of customer operating data.
