  • 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 Manager - Full Scheduled Backup ...but would like to exclude one domain?

bradz

Regular Pleskian
I would like to have the Backup Manger run a full server backup but exclude one domain that has tons of material which does not need to be backed up as often.

Years ago, Plesk did have the option to choose the domains to backup (Admin login). However, It was a problem at times because I would forget to include new domains.

I do not know of any similar option present now to exclude a domain from the full Scheduled Backup.

I am thinking that I could set up a reseller (myself), put all of the sites I would like to backup more often in that account and run backup from that level.

The Problem with including all of the sites is that the SUPER LARGE site, bogs downs the backup process and I really do not knew it included as often.

Any Suggestions? Brad

# /usr/local/psa/bin/pleskbackup --help | grep exclude-domain
--exclude-domain=<obj1>,<obj2>,...
--exclude-domain-file=<file>
