  1. Increase migration speed

    The current Migration Manager (Linux) is painfully slow. A full server migration (+/- 300GB of data) over Gigabit takes more then 12 hours. During this time lots of website will have changed MySQL data getting lost after the migration.

    The issue with the migration system in its current state is that if does site-by-site migration. If migrates site A, then goes to site B, then C, etc, etc. Because each site migration consists of a alot of different steps the servers are mostly waiting for each other to finish some process like creating mailboxes.

    The load on both the source…

    In 12.5 we changed from PMM that performed operations step by step to Migrator extension, which performs data transfer in multiple data streams. The feature to make it fully asynchronous operations not only for transfer stage as well as other performance improvements (specifically for Windows migrations) is in the cards.

    Please let us know on https://talk.plesk.com if still have problems with migration speed.

  7. Provide panel.ini option to disable File Sharing

  8. FileManager ability to upload file to server by link

    In filemanager we have abilities to create empty file and upload file from PC. I want to get ability to set link and upload file to server. To install some app now I should download distributive from vendor's site to my local pc, then I should upload it via FTP/FM on server. I want to upload it to server directly to save my time and nerves.

  10. not changing event_id for event_handler

    Hi
    We built some scripts to add some new events by CLI (due it is not possible by XML- API) to our over 70 Plesk installations. We detected, that in several Plesk installations (even with the same Plesk- Version number), the IDs of the events (plesk bin event_handler --list-events) changes. So we can't use a script. We always have to check and fix the "Event" manually. it would be helpfull to use static ids (even for different versions of plesk) or a speaking id (exp. "reseller-limit-changed", "susbscripion-limit-changed")...
    Best regards

  11. Make Plesk File Sharing removeable

    It's a prominent feature that is "offered" everywhere in the GUI but one can't get rid of it when it's not used and it's not uninstallable also. Please make it removable.

  12. Add passive FTP to default Plesk Config and Firewall rule

    Right now it's required to add the passive FTP range in the FTP config and then add another firewall rule to let the clients access it.

    Please make this default to the FTP config or at least configurable in the server security settings or even in the global FTP settings page.

    Thanks!


    Firwall rules
    Name: z.B Passive FTP-Transfer
    Direction: Incoming
    Action: Allow
    Ports: e.g. 49150 - 65000 TCP (don't use ports below 10000 for security reasons)
    File: /etc/proftpd.conf
    Between <global> and </global> add the following lines:
    PassivePorts 49150 65000
    Restart service: service xinetd restart

  13. Let's Encrypt SSL certificate for Plesks admin url

    It would be great if we could ad a Let's Encrypt SSL to the admin url.

    Is there an easy way to do this or will there be support in Plesk to do this?

  14. “Updates and Upgrades”-Tool (8447) doesn’t work with ECDHE-ECDSA certificate

    I changed certificate that secures Plesk. The new certificate is an ECDHE-ECDSA certificate, the default Plesk certificate is an RSA certificate. I’ve noticed that parallelsinstaller is not reachable on port 8447 (after clicking on “Updates and Upgrades” in “Tools & Settings”), in combination with the new ECDHE-ECDSA certificate. parallelsinstaller is started, listen on port 8447, doesn’t write any error to any log file and everything seems to be ok. But the web browsers say “ERRSSLVERSIONORCIPHERMISMATCH” (Vivaldi/Chrome) and “SSLERRORNOCYPHEROVERLAP” (Firefox). No cipher is accepted, I’ve tested all available from OpenSSL.

  15. Let'sEncrypt Extension for Windows & .NET platform

    I've noticed that you have developed an extension for Let'sEncrypt which is working only on Linux edition of Plesk. Why don't you take a look at ACMESharp open source project on Github which has already developed a CLI for windows and .NET?

  16. list the websites that are being deleted when deleting as a confirmation.

    Instead of that note that asks if we're sure we want to delete the selected subscriptions or domains, please list what is being deleted as a confirmation so that we're sure. I once accidentally deleted a whole account and had to rebuild it. To this day, I HATE deleting anything for fear that it's doing something that I didn't plan on.

  18. Health Monitoring in Power View

    It's a pity that Health Monitoring is not showing in Power View mode, only in Service Provider view. Adding a custom button won't help either in Power View.

  19. docker or lxc

    It wanna be nice to have docker or lxc in Plesk integrated, in that way like "cockpit" have it. That you can easily create container, set start parameter login over a console. All this over a web interface.

    Sadly at the moment virtuozzo even don't support docker - but maybe it will in the future :). And the are the doors open for docker in Plesk.
