    So with today update, I managed to wipe the server(without bps).I uninstalled the oxide and rustIO from acp and updated the server..after that I installed back oxide and rustio.Since my server, its just 2 weeks old and I have no experience I did the oxide uninstall and update the server like for 2 times when I saw that the server it is working.It is possible because of that the map got wiped?I just wanna know to don t do the mistake again.
    Thanks.(Sorry for bad English)

    Oxide and Rust:IO don't wipe your server, and today's Rust update was not a forced/automatic wipe. Some hosts may do an automatic wipe, but you should be backing up your server (mainly server/identity) before each update at least.

    So I can use the back up from the host and if I have any problem I can restore that backup?
