Create Single VPS Backup

Use the Create Single VPS Backup API to create the backup of the VPS. This is the image of the VPS which can be stored locally or remotely depending on the backup plan given to the VPS. The log file for the backup process can be found at /var/virtualizor/log/backup/VPSID.log. The API response will contain "done" message after the backup process is started successfully (Since 3.0.8.2+).

For more information, you can refer this Backup Plans guide.
