Due to security restrictions uPress does not allow canceling the automated backups on VPS servers

The automated backups created by uPress are not full backups, but smart incremental backups. The incremental backups only save changes from the backup base image, This means that the volume used for that backup is way smaller then duplicating the site.

Our recommendation is to add a service of automating your backup to an external drive and using the entire server disk [Web dedicated SSD] to websites only [as opposed to websites + backups]
