Every port R1Soft Server Backup Manager and its agents need, the direction each connection runs, and copy-paste firewall rules for firewalld, CSF, UFW, and AWS security groups.

Pull one MySQL database out of an R1Soft recovery point without rolling back the whole server — using the Database Browser wizard or a side-by-side mysqld for non-application-aware safes.

How to set R1Soft's Maximum Concurrent Tasks, stagger policy start times across a hosting fleet, and stop the 02:00 thundering herd from pinning your SBM disk and Tomcat heap.

How to size a R1Soft Server Backup Manager for production hosting fleets — storage overhead, Tomcat heap, NVMe vs SATA, and a worked example for 30 agents.

How to throttle R1Soft policies so backups stop saturating MySQL, disk I/O, and uplinks — schedule windows, bandwidth caps, disk read limits, and agent-side niceness.
