You can adjust the schedule and amount of kept backups in the [admin settings](http://my.immich.app/admin/system-settings?isOpen=backup).
By default, Immich will keep the last 14 backups and create a new backup every day at 2:00 AM.
#### Trigger Backup
You are able to trigger a backup in the [admin job status page](http://my.immich.app/admin/jobs-status).
Visit the page, open the "Create job" modal from the top right, select "Backup Database" and click "Confirm".
A job will run and trigger a backup, you can verify this worked correctly by checking the logs or the backup folder.
This backup will count towards the last X backups that will be kept based on your settings.
#### Restoring
We hope to make restoring simpler in future versions, for now you can find the backups in the `UPLOAD_LOCATION/backups` folder on your host.
