The UBB does have a backup system, however I wouldn't use it...
If you have access to SSH (which any decent host would allow) You can do the following:
MySQL Export: mysqldump -uusername -ppassword database_name > file_to_write.sql
MySQL Import: mysql -h localhost -uusername -ppassword database_name < file_to_insert.sql
OK I read this wrong before... may try that...
