Enterprise storage backends & scheduled VPS protection
Manage high-performance guest disks across LVM, ZFS, Ceph, and file storage. Keep ISO and OS template libraries ready for instant provision. Schedule full VPS backups to local disk or remote targets - all from the same panel that runs your fleet.
Storage for guests, backups for recovery
Virtualizor connects node storage arrays to VM provisioning and keeps guest disks protected with scheduled backup jobs your team can restore from the panel.
- LVM, LVM-Thin, ZFS, Ceph RBD, RAW, QCOW2 storage drivers
- Central ISO and OS Template libraries for fast provisioning
- Scheduled full backups with remote server rotation
- Admin and enduser restore workflows when policy allows
From disk layout to a restore you can run
Storage management and data protection are integrated directly into the Virtualizor control panel.
Attach storage & media
Configure storage pools for nodes, manage extra volume disks, and keep ISO/OS template libraries ready for instant VPS creation and rebuilds.
Schedule protection
Define backup plans on daily, weekly, or monthly schedules. Direct full archives to local node disk or off-site backup destinations.
Restore when it matters
Admins and endusers perform single-click restorations from the panel list when your ACL policy allows self-service recovery.
