Hi, my name is Marcel.
I would like to know the best practice to keep Azuracast running on an Ubuntu server. Also, you speak about how to install it, but nothing about how and when to back it up and update it.
I followed both your youtube videos on “How to Create Online Radio Stations Free with Azuracast Web Radio Broadcasting Software 1 & 2 and Create 24/7 Live Streaming Server Free (Multistream Enabled)”
I need to back them up. I don’t want to get into any trouble since they are up and running. I would like to know if I can get a detailed procedure on how to do that.
Thanks for your time.
You can back up the Azuracast server on the web interface and on the command line also.

Web Interface Backup
The “Backup” page in the “System Administration” part of your AzuraCast online interface allows you to set up routine automated backups, perform a one-time backup, and download existing backup files.
The web panel backups don’t stop your broadcasts or disconnect your listeners.
Command Line Backup
You can back up your Docker files using the following commands.
cd /var/azuracast ./docker.sh backup path-to-backup.zip
Backups can be made in “.tar.gz” and “.zip” formats. The filename you select for the backup file’s extension will automatically identify the proper format.
Restore Backup
Follow the below steps to restore your backup file on the new server.
1. Install AzuraCast (see our guide)
If you prefer stable release versions of AzuraCast, install it by selecting Y. This will help if you have an older backup file and are having trouble restoring it.
2. Run the restore command after the installation is complete:
./docker.sh restore path-to-backup.zip
3. Execute rolling-release
If an outdated backup file forced you to switch to the stable installation previously, you should now make the change by using the rolling-release command and selecting N when prompted to use the stable version:
./docker.sh setup-release
4. Update Azuracast
Finally, execute the below command to keep the installation up to date with the most recent rolling-release version:
./docker.sh update
