I had my server in SBG2 and sadly the backup failed since the end of january. Yep it is my mistake for not checking the backups. Now I lost about 1 month of data.

The only good thing is that my backup was offsite.

Does OVH offer automatic snapshots for VPS? I know Hetzner does it for 20% addidation of the cost of the server. If they do the next question would be if they are destroyed too?

They do offer automatic backups, and they're offsite (RBX in this case).

Here's more information on them: https://docs.ovh.com/gb/en/vps/using-automated-backups-on-a-...

With OVH the price can depending on the situation double your cost, if you've got a 3€ VPS and a 3€ backup configuration (as the price depends on size)
