Overview

This node operation allows users to restore a VPS snapshot using the Hostinger API. It is useful for scenarios where a user needs to revert a virtual machine to a previous state captured in a snapshot, such as recovering from system errors, data corruption, or unwanted changes. For example, a user can restore a snapshot to quickly undo recent changes or recover a VPS after a failed update.

Use Case Examples

  1. Restore a VPS snapshot to recover a server to a known good state after a failed software update.
  2. Revert a VPS to a previous snapshot before a configuration change that caused issues.

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the Virtual Machine ID provided is correct and corresponds to an existing VPS snapshot.
