  • 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.

Server-wide backup takes up space in customer domains repository

New Pleskian
Hi guys - quick question...

I've setup server-wide backup on my Plesk 11 on Windows, here:
Home > Tools & Settings > Backup Manager: Server Repository > Scheduled Backup Settings.

Everything included in the backup, stored in Server Repository.

Then I noticed that if a customer has 2gb worth of data in his domain, then after my backup has run, his domain is now taking up 4gb. And after a 2nd backup has run, his domain now takes up 6gb (2gb data + 4gb worth of backups).

Is there no way that I can do server-wide backups of *everything* without taking up space for customers?

Thanks in advance for reply.
 
Just go into Tools & Settings > Server Preferences and uncheck "backup files created by the administrator" option in
"Include in the disk space usage calculation" section
 
Thank you very much - that seems like it would do the trick :)

(It was "Server Settings" though, not "Server Preferences")
