This page explains how to restore the Live environment to a previous state.

Restoring the Live environment may require more than one action, depending on your Magnolia cloud set up.

Different data types require different restore actions:

  • Restore from backup recovers: 
    • Magnolia software custom configuration (JCR data of configuration workspace).
    • Editor-created content (JCR data from content workspaces such as website, dam, category, contacts, etc.).
  • Install a release recovers Magnolia light modules you have added.

You can execute either action first. 

When recovering a live environment, the process follows the blue/green deployment model. For more information see The Upgrade Flow section in Upgrading Magnolia in the cloud.
