• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service.

  • 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.

Question Scheduled backup retry

matbcvo

Basic Pleskian
Is it possible to configure backup system to retry after X minutes/hours when it fails to do so? I can't seem to find that option in Plesk.
Scheduled full backup sometimes fails because of temporary error (FTP server error or database is locked etc). I always have to do backup manually after I receive notification from Plesk about scheduled backup error.

There is no built-in function for that, but I think that the command line has a return code that you can use in a shell script to automatically start a new backup if it returns an error instead of 0. But you'll need to develop this script by yourself.
