id: elestio-maintenance title: Elestio Maintenance Guidance for operating a Sitecopilot instance deployed via Elestio.

Backups & restores

  • Verify backup retention in the Elestio UI. Elestio creates periodic snapshots of volumes and databases.
  • For restores, use the Elestio restore workflow (select snapshot → restore). Always test restores on a staging instance before applying to production.

Monitoring & alerts

  • Configure CPU, memory and disk alerts in Elestio.
  • Monitor application logs and error rates via the Elestio console or an external log sink.

Scaling

  • Vertical scaling: increase VM size in Elestio.
  • Horizontal scaling: deploy multiple app containers behind a load balancer (if template supports it).

Upgrades

  • Elestio may offer template upgrades. Review release notes and perform canary upgrades if possible.

Support & SLA

  • Check your Elestio plan for SLA and support windows. For urgent incidents, use Elestio support and provide snapshots/logs.

Notes

  • All files above are MDX pages; each contains frontmatter id and title ready for mintlify.
  • Place each file at the same level as your docs.json (or adjust contentPath) and redeploy.
