  • 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 optimization

cygus

Basic Pleskian
Hi,

I would like to optimize backup proces.
Now Plesk backups full data do FTP but I have 500GB HDD, DATA is 220GB so there is no free space during backup proces.

I think about backup each client/domain separately.

How can I optimize backup proces?

Best regards
 
It's very interesting but when I run the script to ftp backup I have after about 3-4hours one file named server_130221083221 without suffix (on ftp) and one error:

Back up server
PHP Warning: fclose(): FTP server error 421:421 Data timeout. Reconnect. Sorry.
in /opt/psa/fullbackup.php on line 154
Created full server backup 'ftp://test@172.16.200.200/fullbackup_130221083221'

What is wrong?

Regards.
 
Looks like it vsftp server related problem. Try to increase value

idle_session_timeout = 600 (Default)

in vsftpd.conf file and restart vsftpd service.
 
Ok, I try it but file is transfered (size is about 185GB).
Is possible to extract this file and restore for example only DB or one file?
