  • 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.

How to backup plesk 10

Webroy

Regular Pleskian
Webmasters,

How do you make a complete server backup?

I am testing the plesk 10 backup options like:

/usr/local/psa/bin/pleskbackup server -c --skip-logs --output-file=/backup/pleskbackup.tar -vvv

unpack it in the /var/lib/psa/dumps and import it in plesk i.c.m. rsync and tar.

But that gives errors like chaning passwords and not keeping password protected directories. ( Ticket is submitted @ plesk)

I looked at clonezilla but they need a offline server to backup it complete .

Any other options?
 
I do not understand why you use pleskbackup utility and do not use standard plesrestore utility but use described complex backup restoration method?
 
Hi igor,

I restore the configuration with plesk ( no external programs but yours used). but without the content which i backup with rsync.

When i do a full backup of a server with content he gives more then onze errors on domains and without content the making of the backup works fine
 
When i do a full backup i get a lot of errors like:
</object>
<object name="domain.com" type="domain">
<object name="domaindb" type="mysql">
