icon above the words Backup on the main screen of your cPanel interface.

3. Select the destination you wish to save the backup to from the drop box next to Backup Destination:
4. Enter your email address in the field next to Email Address:. An email will be sent to this address when the backup is completed.
5. If you are backing up to a remote server, place the server's name, your username, and your password on that server in the appropriate fields.
6. Click on Generate Backup to start the backup process.
Troubleshooting
When backing up to a remote server, make sure you have properly entered the servername, your username on that server, and your password for that account.
