  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Backup and Restore in Plesk

Spikerok

Basic Pleskian
Hello,

Hard drive on my server seems to be having some issues and needs to be replaced.. I have been always using the back up facility in Plesk but never had to restore from it.

My hosting company told me to backup all the data and they will replace hard drive urgently.

I have made backup via Plesk and I just want some confirmation that after performing a "Server configuration and content" I have all the content files for my sites, database and emails?

Once they replace the HD, i presume restore would be pretty simple and just requires me to take the backup file and use that for restore? After that all my site, databases and emails would be back us normal? and I wouldn't have to recreate each site and similar tasks?
