Plesk Backup to second HDD

D

My server has got a second hard drive which I was planning to use for backups. I can't figure out how to set up Plesk to automatically do a backup to the second hdd. What is the best way to do this?
 
Hello,

The easy way is to edit /etc/psa/psa.conf file and change the:

# Backups directory
DUMP_D /var/lib/psa/dumps
 
That would then cause all Plesk backups to end up on the second HDD I would assume.

What I want to be able to setup are separate backup jobs to both disks or for some domains/clients, backups to the second HDD only.
