Limit maximum crontab frequency and preventing cronjobs pile-up
Plesk administrator should be able to limit the maximum crontab frequency allowed for user's crontab (example: deny the creation of cronjob that run more often than once in 5 minutes)
Crontab pile-up should be prevented, so a user can't run a cron job if the same job isn't finished yet.
1 voteThank you for your idea.
For the time being, please consider that a script that is started via cronjob, should check itself if another instance of the same script is already running, if there is a risk that a further instance causes problems. Crontab cannot check that.
Also, please be aware that users are not bound to repeat actions in a script in a while-loop. They can easily start a script every 10 minutes, yet let it run over and over again by just putting their content into a while-loop, maybe even wait a few seconds after each iteration. So limiting them to create cronjobs for only every n minutes will not keep users from executing scripts all the time.
We'd like to hear more from other users what they think about the idea. If it still becomes popular, it might find its way into a future version of the…

consistency between PhpSettingsCustom and dom_param tables.
It would be great that plesk repair db checks the consistency between PhpSettingsCustom and dom_param tables.
This can be reproduced by adding some additional php directives via Plesk UI for example.com domain and then removing them from table PhpSettingsCustom via plesk db command.

Please describe in more detail what exactly you need to add to the feature that already exists and please provide a business case why this can make Plesk a better product.

Hi, showing the numbers of files and folders in each directory is useful.
1 voteThank you for your idea. Could you please describe the business case where this is needed? Do you need the number of files in one directory or the accumulated number of files including recursive counting through subdirectories? What will the results be used for?

Add a snapshot of the current processes list to existing CPU / memory usage exceeded emails
The Monitoring extension already triggers email notifications when resource usage exceeds the allocations, but if usage has already settled before you notice these emails and click through to the server, it's difficult to find which domain was the cause.
Adding a snapshot of the current processes list to these emails when it's the CPU or memory usage thresholds that have been exceeded would be very useful. Potentially just the "Domains only" filtered list would suffice. Maybe trimmed to the top 50 or so processes ordered by CPU or memory, whichever is appropriate at the time.

Add unique identifier to login event parameters
Currently the user login/logout event only gives a contact name as event parameter. This is not a unique identifier since multiple users can have the same contact name. In the psa log_actions database table the username is saved. Please also add the username to the event parameters so there's a unique identifier which user logged in our out.
Not sure about the category, so please replace if there's a better place for this suggestion.

Resource usage report per Service plan

Empty .trash folder even if it contains read-only/write-only files
When the .trash folder contains read-only directories or files, it cannot be emptied with the "Emtpy Recycle Bin" button of "File Manager". Instead it throws errors that Linux "rm" cannot access the files or directories for removal.
As these files and directories are in the trash folder, I propose to delete such files anyway as otherwise a user without console access or limited knowledge (such as using FTP to change file permissions, if that is possible at all for the FTP user account) can't ever remove such files.

Advisor that finds the cause for high CPU usage automatically
My server sometimes suffers from or even crashes from high CPU usage. I'd like to have an advisor like the Security Advisor, but for automatically telling me which service or website causes the high cpu usage. It would be best if that advisor could also check webserver logs automatically, if it finds that for example the PHP cpu load is high in a website.
